What is the difference between Global Truss F34 and F32/F33?

The main difference between Global Truss F34 and F32/F33 is wall thickness and load class. All three use a 50 mm main tube, but F34 has a 3 mm wall thickness, while F32 and F33 use a 2 mm wall. The thicker F34 material significantly increases the maximum span and point load, which makes F34 (and F34 PL) the standard choice for stage roofs, ground support towers and heavy touring structures. F32 and F33 are better suited to lighting rigs, DJ setups and mid-size spans where loads are lighter and budget matters.

Is Global Truss available in the UK and Europe?

Yes, Global Truss is available across the UK, Ireland and the rest of Europe. At LTT you can order the full Global Truss range and have it shipped from our warehouse in Germany, with worldwide delivery and an international dealer network for professional customers. LTT offers fast dispatch, free shipping from €69, express delivery options and trade pricing for resellers. Because standard trusses and corners are typically held in large stock, common Global Truss items can usually be dispatched quickly, so your production timeline stays on schedule.

Which connectors and couplers fit Global Truss systems?

Global Truss systems use series-specific connectors, so compatibility matters. Standard Series truss connects with spigot-and-pin connectors, while PL Series truss uses conical connectors that self-align for faster, more rigid assembly. For attaching fixtures and cross-members, load-rated couplers such as the Global Truss 812-B Half Coupler are the standard choice. You also need corners (2-, 3- and 4-way), base plates like the BS450, spacers, pins and R-clips. At LTT you can add matching Riggatec safety hardware, clamps and steels so every connection on your Global Truss rig is compatible and load-rated.

Where can I find the Global Truss catalogue?

You can find the Global Truss range, technical data and load information directly through LTT's Global Truss category, where each product lists specifications such as tube diameter, wall thickness and truss cross-section. For construction planning, Global Truss also provides the free online Truss Construction Tool (TrussTool 3D) and a smartphone app that gives access to all load tables. If you need a specific datasheet, structural calculation or a full component list for a build, the LTT technical team can supply the relevant documentation and help you specify the correct Global Truss parts for your project.

How do I build a Global Truss lighting tower?

To build a Global Truss lighting tower, start with a stable base plate such as the BS450, then stack vertical truss sections in a suitable heavy-duty series (F34 or F34 PL for taller towers). Connect sections with the correct connectors, secure all pins and R-clips, and level the tower using screwjack or spindle feet. Fixtures attach via load-rated couplers, and every suspended load needs a secondary safety cable. Always plan the tower against the published load tables, add ballast or bracing where required, and for larger ground support structures obtain a structural calculation before rigging.

What is a Global Truss stage or stage deck system?

A Global Truss stage or stage deck system combines load-bearing aluminium truss with modular decks to create a raised, safe performance platform. The truss provides the structural framework — for roofs, towers or supports — while stage decks form the walking surface. It is important to understand that truss carries suspended and ground-supported loads such as lighting, PA and roof canopies, whereas decks and podiums provide the floor. At LTT you can combine Global Truss structures with matching stage deck and podium systems, so you build a complete, certified stage solution from a single event-technology specialist.

What load can Global Truss F34 carry?

The load a Global Truss F34 truss can carry depends on span length, support conditions and whether the load is a point load or uniformly distributed, so there is no single universal figure. Thanks to its 50 mm main tube and 3 mm wall thickness, F34 is the heavy-duty series rated for stage roofs, ground support and touring structures. Exact working load limits (WLL) are published in the Global Truss load tables, available through the smartphone app and planning tools. Always plan against those tables, never exceed the stated span limits, and obtain a structural calculation for complex builds.

Which Global Truss series should I buy for a small club or DJ setup?

For a small club, band or DJ setup, the F31 or F32 series is usually the best Global Truss choice. These four-point systems with a 50 mm tube handle typical lighting loads such as LED bars and smaller moving heads, are affordable and easy to store and transport. A simple goalpost or lighting bridge in F32 is quick to assemble and sets the scene effectively. If you plan to grow into heavier fixtures or longer spans later, standardise on F32 now so your corners, couplers and base plates stay interchangeable as your rig expands.
