Description
The ProX XT-BPX42S 42-Inch X-Style Base Plate is designed for professional production environments that require the largest footprint in the ProX X-Style base plate lineup. Compatible with F34 square truss, bolt truss, and M20 poles, this versatile base plate supports a range of truss and pole installations. Its 42-inch size provides a broad mounting platform for large-scale staging, lighting, and event structures.
Versatile X-Style Mounting Pattern
The X-style mounting points allow the base plate to accommodate multiple compatible truss and pole types. This layout helps position the upright centrally over the full 42-inch footprint. For production companies and rental houses with mixed equipment inventories, the multi-system design can simplify equipment selection and reduce the need for separate base plates for each compatible system.

The XT-BPX42S supports compatible F34 square truss and bolt truss systems, making it suitable for a variety of stage, lighting, and display structures. It can also be paired with compatible M20 poles for single-pole lighting, speaker, or décor applications. Verify mounting hardware and system compatibility before installation.
