A. Support Struts
The support struts are made of aluminum alloy. They are set or adjustable in length and usually tubular in shape. They are made in different tube dimensions and wall thickness to meet special requirements. A fork-end or eye-end fitting is attached to each end of the tube. The ends provide the installation points to connect the strut between the structures, or the structure and the component.
