ProX XT-F35SQ656 F35 5-Chord Truss Segment - Center-Balanced LED Video Panel Top Span (6.56 ft / 2.00 m)
The ProX XT-F35SQ656 is a 6.56 ft / 2.00 m F35 professional 5-chord truss segment engineered for stable, central, load-balanced suspension of LED video panels, video walls, and heavy entertainment equipment.
While it is dimensionally compatible with traditional F34 / 290mm box truss, the F35 system adds a reinforced fifth (center) chord to create a dedicated, balanced hang point that helps reduce torsion and uneven load stress in front-loaded LED applications.
- Core application: LED video wall top spans and center-hung LED builds
- System advantage: Fifth chord creates a central hang point for improved balance and rigging efficiency
- Compatibility: Dimensionally compatible with F34 / 290mm truss systems for mixed-system builds
This segment is manufactured from high-grade aluminum tubing and is designed for touring, staging, rental, and permanent installations where LED walls demand more than standard box truss can safely provide.
It uses a conical coupling system compatible with most industry-standard conical truss systems, and includes side connecting hardware (truss pins and safety clips).

Any LED panels, processors, motors, or rigging accessories used with the truss are controlled and powered independently.
Planning Notes for LED Wall Builds Using ProX F35 5-Chord Truss
Center-Chord Load Path for Front-Loaded LED Walls
LED video walls commonly introduce front-loaded and centralized weight. The F35 system adds a fifth central tube so LED panels can hang directly from the center of the structure, improving balance and helping reduce torsion and uneven load stress compared to standard box truss workflows.
Mixed-System Top Span Strategy (F35 Top, F34 Towers)
For most medium-scale LED walls, ProX recommends using F35 5-chord truss along the top span, supported by standard F34 box truss towers or frames. This approach targets optimal strength and balance while keeping the overall build efficient for touring and production teams.
Top or Bottom Installation Flexibility
The segment can be installed facing up or down, functioning as a center or balanced hang point depending on how you configure your build. This flexibility supports different LED wall layouts, trim heights, and front-of-house presentation goals.
Hardware and Connection Workflow
The XT-F35SQ656 uses a conical coupling system and includes one side connecting hardware set (truss pins and safety clips). Plan your connection points and hardware staging so the crew can build cleanly and consistently across repeated shows.
Transport and Handling Planning for Tight Production Schedules
This segment is listed as parcel shipping with a single carton size of 80.00 in x 13.00 in x 13.00 in and shipping weight of 54.00 lb. For touring and venue turns, align vehicle space and handling needs with the carton length and load-in realities.
How to Deploy ProX XT-F35SQ656 in LED Wall Rigging
Use the XT-F35SQ656 as a top span element when you need a center-balanced hang point for LED video panels. ProX guidance highlights using F35 along the top span with F34 towers or frames supporting the structure for medium-scale LED wall builds.
Always confirm your full system design (LED panel weight, motors, points, trim height, and environment) is properly engineered and installed by qualified personnel.
- Build intent: Position the F35 segment where a central hang point improves balance for front-loaded LED walls.
- System pairing: Use F35 for the top span and standard F34 towers/frames where appropriate for mixed-system builds.
- Orientation choice: Install facing up or down based on the desired hang point and clean front-of-house presentation.
- Connection readiness: Stage conical connections and included pins/safety clips so builds remain consistent show-to-show.
For LED walls, prioritize a centered load path and balanced hang points to reduce torsion and uneven stress across the span.

Frequently Asked Questions - ProX XT-F35SQ656
What makes F35 5-chord truss better for LED walls than standard box truss?
LED video walls introduce front-loaded and centralized weight. The ProX F35 system adds a reinforced fifth (center) chord, creating a dedicated central hang point to improve balance and reduce torsion and uneven load stress compared to standard box truss workflows.
Is the XT-F35SQ656 compatible with F34 / 290mm truss systems?
Yes. ProX states the F35 system is dimensionally compatible with traditional F34 / 290mm box truss, supporting mixed-system builds where F35 is used on the top span and F34 towers or frames support the structure.
Can this truss segment be installed facing up or down?
Yes. ProX lists top or bottom installation capability, allowing it to function as a center or balanced hang point depending on orientation and build design.
Does the XT-F35SQ656 include connection hardware?
Yes. It includes one side connecting hardware set: truss pins and safety clips, and it uses a conical coupling system compatible with most industry-standard conical truss systems.
