About the Turbosound TCS122-FP-WH Fly Plate Kit for TCS122 Loudspeakers (White)
The Turbosound TCS122-FP-WH is a dedicated white fly plate hardware kit engineered to facilitate the secure overhead suspension of compatible TCS122 loudspeakers. This essential rigging component provides the critical interface between the loudspeaker cabinet and a certified flying structure such as a motor, truss, or fixed anchor point, converting the speaker into a safe and flyable unit. The kit includes robust mounting plates and all necessary high-grade steel hardware, designed and tested to meet the stringent safety standards required for both permanent installations and touring applications. Its construction prioritizes maximum tensile strength and reliability, ensuring the loudspeaker remains securely anchored when deployed in flown arrays or as a single suspended element.
Installation is streamlined, with the fly plates attaching directly to the loudspeaker's integral M10 rigging points using the supplied bolts and washers to form a rigid attachment frame. The design typically incorporates a central forged steel ring or multiple connection points, offering riggers flexibility to use various standard flying hardware like shackles, allowing for adjustment of the cabinet's angle to achieve optimal acoustic orientation. The white powder-coated finish of the plates is specifically matched to the aesthetic of white-finished TCS122 cabinets, ensuring a cohesive and visually discreet appearance in venues where minimizing the visual impact of audio equipment is desired.
Safety is the foundational principle in the design of such components. The fly plate kit is manufactured with a significant safety factor, meaning its rated load capacity substantially exceeds the static weight of the loudspeaker it supports. This accounts for dynamic forces such as acceleration, deceleration, and vibrational energy encountered during operation and rigging procedures. By utilizing this manufacturer-approved flyware, installers ensure the loudspeaker is suspended in strict accordance with its engineered specifications, maintaining the integrity of the audio system and, most critically, safeguarding the environment below. The TCS122-FP-WH kit is thus an indispensable component for the professional aerial deployment of these loudspeakers.
