Distributed in North America by ProX Live Performance Gear.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have ever worked a \u003cb\u003elarge-scale concert, a festival stage, or a touring production with a full LED video wall\u003c\/b\u003e, you already know how much time gets lost rigging and re-rigging the same fixtures from show to show. The \u003cb\u003eThe HOF MLT THREE\u003cbr\u003e\nPre-Rig Truss\u003c\/b\u003e 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 \u003cb\u003eexclusively through ProX Live Performance Gear\u003c\/b\u003e, bringing a truly professional-grade pre-rig platform to the US and Canadian market for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe MLT THREE is built around an \u003cb\u003eopen-bottom design with no closed head frame\u003c\/b\u003e, 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 \u003cb\u003emoving lights, LED fixtures, and video modules\u003c\/b\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLED video panel rental companies take note.\u003c\/b\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery MLT THREE ships with \u003cb\u003esteel rotatable fork connectors, both male and female\u003c\/b\u003e. These hardened steel forks extend by up to \u003cb\u003e60 mm\u003c\/b\u003e 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 \u003cb\u003eindividually field-replaceable\u003c\/b\u003e, so a connector damaged on a rough load-in does not ground the entire truss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most practical advantages of the MLT THREE for North American rental and production companies is its \u003cb\u003ecross-brand compatibility\u003c\/b\u003e. The male and female steel fork connectors and the \u003cb\u003eindustry-standard 48.3 mm main tube\u003c\/b\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHOF manufactured this truss from \u003cstrong\u003eaerospace-grade aluminium EN AW 6082 T6\u003c\/strong\u003e and finished each unit with a Heavy Duty (HD) powder coating in \u003cstrong\u003eRAL 9005 gloss black\u003c\/strong\u003e. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe MLT THREE is fully documented with a \u003cb\u003ecomprehensive structural analysis\u003c\/b\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you are a \u003cb\u003eproduction company running large concerts and festivals\u003c\/b\u003e, a \u003cb\u003erental house operating LED video panel systems\u003c\/b\u003e, or a \u003cb\u003estaging contractor\u003c\/b\u003e adding a serious pre-rig truss to your inventory, the HOF MLT THREE\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e delivers the engineering, durability, and cross-brand flexibility that the North American market demands.  \u003cb\u003eHOF by ProX - professional truss, engineered in Germany, backed in North America.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlease Note:\u003c\/b\u003e ProX Item# XTH-MLT3US8FT includes the MLT THREE 8 Ft. truss section and steel rotatable fork connectors (male and female) only. The folding stackable dolly and adjustable telescopic legs are not included and are available separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpen Bottom Design for Fast, Unrestricted Rigging\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe MLT THREE has no closed head frame at the bottom, giving your crew full, unobstructed access to mount moving lights, LED fixtures, and video modules directly into the truss. This eliminates time-consuming workarounds and dramatically speeds up load-in on busy production schedules.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered for Large Concerts, Touring Productions, and Rental Companies\u003c\/strong\u003e T\u003cspan\u003ehe HOF MLT THREE is built for exactly the environments where truss takes the most punishment. Large-scale concerts, touring production rigs, and professional rental operations across North America now have access to the same pre-rig truss platform trusted by major production companies in Europe.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIdeal for LED Video Panel Rental Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe open-bottom clearance and structural design of the MLT THREE make it a standout choice for LED video wall builds. Mount your panels and hanging frames directly inside the truss, transport the entire assembly on the available dolly (sold separately), and fly the rig at the next venue without disassembly. This is the workflow that keeps high-volume rental operations profitable.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel Rotatable Fork Connectors, Male and Female, Included\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eEvery HOF MLT THREE ships with both male and female rotatable fork connectors made of hardened steel. The forks can be extended by up to 60 mm and rotated to form vertical or horizontal curves at different radii. This allows you to configure straight runs, curved rigs, or circular overhead builds all from the same hardware set. Individual forks are replaceable, so a damaged connector does not sideline the truss.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCross-Brand Compatible with Industry-Standard 48.3 mm Truss Systems\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe male and female steel fork connectors and the 48.3 mm main tube diameter match the truss industry standard, allowing the MLT THREE to connect directly to truss systems from other leading professional manufacturers. If your shop already owns trussing from other brands, this truss integrates into your existing inventory without adapters or custom hardware.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAerospace-Grade Aluminium Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe MLT THREE is manufactured from Aluminium EN AW 6082 T6, an aerospace-grade alloy selected for its combination of high strength and low weight. The 48.3 x 4.5 mm main tube and 30 x 3 mm bracing deliver a structure engineered to handle real professional load requirements show after show.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHOF Proprietary HD Powder Coating in RAL 9005 Black\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eEvery MLT THREE is finished with a Heavy Duty (HD) powder coating formulation. This finish bonds harder and resists chipping, abrasion, and road wear significantly better than standard powder coat. It is applied as standard on all MLT series trusses and holds up to the demands of weekly load-ins and load-outs in a professional touring or rental environment.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptional Double Rail System for Multi-Level Fixture Mounting\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eAn optional rail system is available separately for the MLT THREE, allowing fixtures to be suspended at two different height levels within the same truss. No lowering device is required. This is especially useful for productions that need pre-rigged fixtures at different depths for even coverage across a large stage or video wall.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComprehensive Structural Analysis Documentation Included\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eThe MLT THREE is backed by full structural analysis covering standard line loads, vertical use, upside-down configurations, horizontal and vertical curved configurations, and cantilever applications.
