The Global Truss ST-180 is an extra heavy-duty tower lifter designed for raising truss and compatible event equipment to heights of up to 18 feet. Its adjustable tower design and outriggers make it suitable for professional staging, lighting, and event production applications.
Designed for Professional Truss & Event Applications
The ST-180 is built for applications where a taller crank stand is needed to position compatible truss and production equipment. Its tower-lifter design provides adjustable working height while the outrigger system supports the stand's overall setup.
The stand can be used with compatible Global Truss adapters for mounting truss. Truss adapters are sold separately, so they should not be considered part of the standard ST-180 package.
Adjustable Height for Flexible Setup
With a maximum height of 18 feet, the ST-180 provides a larger vertical range than smaller crank-stand models in the Global Truss ST series. Global Truss currently lists the ST series in four models: ST-90, ST-132, ST-157, and ST-180.
This makes the ST-180 particularly relevant for productions where additional elevation is required for compatible truss or event equipment.
Ideal Applications
The ST-180 can be used for:
- Stage lighting setups
- Event production
- Concert and live-event applications
- Truss support
- Professional AV production
- Temporary event structures
- Compatible speaker or production equipment support
Built for Stable Positioning
The ST-180 uses four outriggers and adjustable foot/leveling components as part of its setup. Global Truss's user guide emphasizes that the stand should be positioned on firm ground and that proper setup of the outriggers and footplates is important before operation.
