If you have ever worked a large-scale concert, a festival stage, or a touring production with a full LED video wall, you already know how much time gets lost rigging and re-rigging the same fixtures from show to show. The The HOF MLT THREE
Pre-Rig Truss was built to solve exactly that problem. This is the truss that major touring production companies and professional rental houses across Europe have relied on for years. It is now available in North America exclusively through ProX Live Performance Gear, bringing a truly professional-grade pre-rig platform to the US and Canadian market for the first time.
The MLT THREE is built around an open-bottom design with no closed head frame, which makes it one of the most practical pre-rig trusses available for productions that demand speed and flexibility. Your crew can load, position, and lock moving lights, LED fixtures, and video modules directly into the truss without fighting the structure. That means faster load-ins, cleaner rigs, and less crew fatigue over the course of a long run.
LED video panel rental companies take note. The MLT THREE is purpose-built for LED video wall applications. The open-bottom clearance gives you unrestricted access to mount complete LED panel modules including hanging frames directly inside the truss. You can leave your panels fully mounted, roll the entire assembly onto the available dolly (sold separately), transport it to the next venue, and fly the rig right back up without ever tearing the panels down and rebuilding. For rental houses doing multiple shows per week, this workflow alone can save hours of labor per event and significantly reduce the risk of panel damage during transport.
Every MLT THREE ships with steel rotatable fork connectors, both male and female. These hardened steel forks extend by up to 60 mm and rotate to form vertical or horizontal curves at different radii, giving your team the flexibility to build straight runs, curved stage rigs, or full circular overhead configurations from the same hardware. The forks are also individually field-replaceable, so a connector damaged on a rough load-in does not ground the entire truss.
One of the most practical advantages of the MLT THREE for North American rental and production companies is its cross-brand compatibility. The male and female steel fork connectors and the industry-standard 48.3 mm main tube allow this truss to connect directly to truss systems from other leading professional manufacturers with no adapters or custom hardware needed. If your shop already owns trussing from other brands, the HOF MLT THREE integrates right into your existing inventory. That kind of compatibility is essential when you are building a mixed-inventory rig under deadline pressure.
HOF manufactured this truss from aerospace-grade aluminium EN AW 6082 T6 and finished each unit with a Heavy Duty (HD) powder coating in RAL 9005 gloss black. This is not an off-the-shelf powder coat finish. It bonds harder, resists chipping and scratching at a significantly higher level than conventional coatings, and holds up to the weekly abuse of a professional touring and rental environment where truss goes in and out of trucks multiple times per week.
The MLT THREE is fully documented with a comprehensive structural analysis covering standard line loads, vertical use, upside-down configurations, horizontal and vertical curved builds, and cantilever applications. That documentation is available for download directly from the product page and is the paperwork your rigging team needs when pulling permits for large venue installs and permitted events.
Whether you are a production company running large concerts and festivals, a rental house operating LED video panel systems, or a staging contractor adding a serious pre-rig truss to your inventory, the HOF MLT THREE delivers the engineering, durability, and cross-brand flexibility that the North American market demands. HOF by ProX - professional truss, engineered in Germany, backed in North America.
