Heavy-Duty Crank Truss Stand\u003c\/strong\u003e, a serious lifting solution built for live events, mobile DJ setups, and production environments where you need reliable overhead rigging without compromising on safety or capacity. This stand is engineered to take on the heavy work, so you can focus on the show.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e500 lb. Center Load Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e The ProX CRANK18FT-500 is rated to support up to 500 lbs. at center load, making it one of the most capable stands in its class for mid-scale lighting and truss applications. When paired with a second ProX CRANK18FT-500 stand and any compatible truss length using the included T-Adapter, the combined system supports a \u003cstrong\u003emaximum total load of 1,000 lbs.\u003c\/strong\u003e, giving you serious overhead capacity for larger setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e18 Ft. Maximum Lift Height\u003c\/strong\u003e This stand raises your truss and lighting to a maximum height of 18 feet, giving you the vertical reach needed for medium to large venue productions, stage shows, and live events. The minimum height starts at 74 inches, so you have a solid working range between ground level setup and full extension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-Duty All-Metal Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e Built from \u003cstrong\u003eheavy-duty steel and aluminum components\u003c\/strong\u003e, the ProX CRANK18FT-500 is designed to handle the stress of repeated setups and teardowns.
