Aluminum Tomcat Truss Grapple Bar for Truss Work Installation

The Grapple allows you to make inline 90-degree connections between similar trusses anywhere along a perpendicular primary truss.  The load capacity of the inline, secondary truss will be 75 percent of the manufacturer’s load rating.  The primary truss must have point load calculations
taken into consideration.  The secondary trusses must be supported at both ends.  Cantilevering of truss is not recommended. 

 

How It Works
Step 1:
Determine general location along the primary truss.
Step 2:
Install both halves of each GRAPPLE set onto the primary truss.
Step 3:
Align GRAPPLE bolts with the end-plate holes of the secondary truss
Step 4:
Apply included washers and hex nuts onto the GRAPPLE bolts. Make any position adjustments before final nut tightening.
