2x3 EZ HUG + EZ BRICK

EZ HUG 2x3 + EZ BRICK | The Extended-Footprint Modular Monolith

The 2x3 EZ HUG combined with six EZ BRICKS is the ultimate solution for extreme-stability rigging. This configuration creates an expansive, rectangular base that maximizes the leverage-to-weight ratio. By locking six units into a single rigid platform, you achieve a level of multi-directional resistance and "overturning" protection that is unmatched in a modular format.

Key Features

  • High-Density Truss Versatility: The 2x3 plate is a masterclass in layout flexibility, providing a precision-machined interface for high-capacity rigging.

    • 12-inch Truss: Features 9 dedicated mounting locations. This allows for perfect centering, edge-aligned towers, or complex multi-column arrays (up to 9 columns) to distribute compression loads across the entire 6-brick foundation.

    • 20.5-inch Truss: Offers 3 primary mounting locations along the central axis. This allows for a massive center-point tower or dual-end towers with a center-weighted counterbalance.

  • Anti-Tip "Super-Footprint": The extended 2x3 geometry significantly increases the ballast's effective moment arm. This makes it the ideal choice for high-wind outdoor environments or tall, thin LED walls where resisting lateral force is the top priority.

  • 6-Point Precision Leveling: Integrated ports accommodate (6) Screwjacks, allowing you to level each of the three "brick pairs" individually. This ensures the total mass of all six bricks is perfectly distributed across the terrain, eliminating any "rocking" or structural stress.

  • Industrial-Scale Mobility: Despite its massive combined weight, the assembly features integrated forklift channels. This allows a single heavy-duty forklift to move an entire 6-brick station at once, drastically reducing the time required for site strikes and resets.

  • Total Ecosystem Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the EZ BRICK lineup. The 2x3 HUG plate acts as a structural bridge, ensuring perfect height matching and alignment across all six units for a professional, flush-mount finish.

  • Modular "Divide and Conquer" Logistics: Built for smart trucking and warehouse handling. Individual bricks are moved via standard dollies or small lifts; once the 2x3 grid is set, the HUG plate binds the bricks into a single, high-tonnage structural anchor that rivals permanent concrete foundations.

  • Industrial Steel Build: Precision-fabricated from heavy-gauge A36 steel with a durable black finish. The 2x3 plate is specially reinforced to maintain its "dead-flat" profile even when under the immense tension and compression of 6-unit ballast loads.
