What is Prolyte used for?

Prolyte is used to build load-bearing structures for the event and entertainment industry. Prolyte truss, roofs, towers, decks and crowd barriers support lighting, audio, video and scenery on concert stages, at festivals, corporate events, exhibitions, theatres, clubs and permanent installations. Prolyte roof systems provide weather protection for outdoor stages, tower systems lift line arrays and LED walls, decks create performance surfaces, and crowd barriers manage audiences safely. In short, Prolyte provides the structural backbone that suspends, supports and elevates production equipment reliably and within certified load limits.

What is the difference between H30V and H40V Prolyte?

The difference between H30V and H40V Prolyte lies mainly in cross-section, load capacity and application. The Prolyte H30V is a lighter 290 mm square truss designed for short-to-medium indoor spans, quick rigging and touring, where fast handling matters. The Prolyte H40V is the heavier-duty series with a larger profile and higher load ratings, intended for wide spans, ground support and roof structures. In practice, choosing H30V versus H40V is the step from medium loads and moderate spans to demanding, high-load rigging. Always confirm your decision against the published WLL load table rather than the series name.

What is the composition of Prolyte truss?

Prolyte truss is composed of an aluminium alloy lattice. Each section combines main chord tubes (the outer load-bearing tubes) with welded diagonal and, on square truss, horizontal bracing tubes. The alloy is typically an EN AW-6082-grade aluminium, chosen for a strong strength-to-weight ratio. Sections are joined using conical couplers with connection pins and R-clips, or spigot connections, depending on the series. Tube diameter and wall thickness define the load capacity: lighter series use thinner tubes, while heavy-duty series use larger diameters and thicker walls. Certified welding under standards such as EN 1090 ensures the structural quality of Prolyte truss.

Where can I download the Prolyte truss catalogue?

The official Prolyte truss catalogue, load tables, manuals and certificates are published by the manufacturer on the Prolyte website, where registered users can download the latest documents. For a specific series such as H30V or H40V, always use the current Prolyte data sheet to check WLL values and rigging instructions. At LTT we can also help you interpret Prolyte load tables and compare them against alternatives such as Naxpro-Truss and Litetruss, so you select the correct series for your span and load. Contact LTT if you need guidance choosing the right documentation for your project.

Who owns Prolyte and where is it manufactured?

Prolyte is owned by Area Four Industries, a Czech group that took over the brand after Prolyte experienced insolvency. Prolyte was originally founded in 1991 in Leek, in the Netherlands, and became a globally recognised name in trussing, staging and rigging. Under Area Four Industries the Prolyte brand continues, and its products remain available – including at LTT. Because ownership and market position have changed, many buyers now also compare Prolyte with German-produced systems such as Naxpro-Truss and Litetruss, which offer equal or higher quality at competitive prices. LTT stocks Prolyte and these alternatives so you can decide transparently.

What are the best alternatives to Prolyte truss?

The best alternatives to Prolyte truss are Naxpro-Truss and Litetruss, both available at LTT. Naxpro-Truss is a leading, innovation-driven brand manufactured in Germany, with FD, HD and GS series covering light indoor grids up to extreme-load ground support. Litetruss offers equal or higher quality than Prolyte at a more attractive price and is partly produced in Germany, including custom fabrication with short lead times. Global Truss and Alutruss are further options for standard and entry-level use. When choosing an alternative, match tube diameter, wall thickness, WLL and the connection system so the new truss fits your span, load and existing inventory.

What does Prolyte truss cost, and how can I save money?

The cost of Prolyte truss depends on the series, length and load class: lighter H30V-style square truss is more affordable, while heavy-duty H40V, roof systems and towers command higher prices. Prolyte generally sits in the premium segment. You can save money without sacrificing quality by comparing Prolyte with Litetruss, which offers equal or higher quality at a better price, or with Naxpro-Truss, produced in-house by LTT. LTT also provides free shipping from €69 and wholesale conditions for resellers. For an accurate quote on a specific configuration, contact LTT and we will recommend the most cost-effective, safe solution.

Which truss should I buy for my stage height and span?

The truss you should buy depends on your free span and hanging load, not on brand alone. For short indoor spans and light lighting grids, a 290 mm square truss such as Prolyte H30V or Naxpro FD34 is usually sufficient. For wide spans, ground support and roofs, step up to a heavy-duty 50 mm / 3 mm system like Prolyte H40V or Naxpro HD34. For extreme loads, consider a 60 mm / 5 mm system such as Naxpro GS94. Always calculate the real load, then read the manufacturer's WLL table and keep a safety margin. If unsure, ask LTT for a specific recommendation.
