12' x 50' Classic Frame Aluminum Single Tube 7' Pole and Fitting Kit

12' x 50' Classic Frame Aluminum Single Tube 7' Pole and Fitting Kit

The 12' x 50' Classic Frame Aluminum Single Tube 7' Pole and Fitting Kit is a heavy-duty structural foundation designed for professional applications requiring extreme linear coverage. Providing a substantial 600 square feet of covered area, this kit is an essential asset for any rental company managing large-scale events, such as long-format festival corridors, expansive catering rows, or high-capacity registration centers. By utilizing high-strength single-tube aluminum construction, the frame remains manageable for transport while providing the rigidity of a commercial-grade system. The 7-foot leg height offers a traditional profile that is efficient to deploy while providing a reliable eave height for various high-traffic environments.

This kit serves as a comprehensive hardware foundation for a West Coast Style frame system. Because it adheres to industry-standard dimensions, all components are fully interchangeable with existing West Coast inventories, allowing for simplified maintenance and modular fleet flexibility. The 12' x 50' footprint is specifically engineered for sites with severe lateral space restrictions where a significant amount of continuous length is required. Whether you are providing weather protection for a block-long thoroughfare or performing an industrial tent installation for long-term inventory protection, this single-tube kit offers the durability required for repeated professional use.

Why the 50-Foot Single Tube System Matters

Maintaining structural integrity and perfect alignment over a 50-foot span is a critical requirement for professional installers. The 12' x 50' Classic Frame Aluminum Single Tube 7' Pole and Fitting Kit is engineered to stay square and secure, preventing the sagging or "snaking" often seen in long-format structures. For a professional event setup, this translates to a clean, continuous canopy line that inspires client confidence over a distance of nearly 17 yards. The modular nature of the West Coast Style frame also allows for efficient teardown and organized storage, ensuring these high-capacity units can be moved and reinstalled quickly between event sites during peak seasons.

Key Features

• West Coast Style Compatibility: Fully interchangeable with standard West Coast Style poles, fittings, and vinyl tops.
• Heavy-Duty Welded Steel Fittings: Includes all necessary crowns, side tees, and corners manufactured from zinc-plated steel for maximum durability and rust resistance.
• Extreme 600 Sq. Ft. Footprint: Designed for high-volume linear queues, catering corridors, and narrow-access areas.
• Corrosion-Resistant Materials: Anodized aluminum and plated steel components are built to resist oxidation through years of outdoor exposure.

How to Use / Installation Best Practices

Assembling a 50-foot-long frame requires precise alignment and a coordinated crew of at least 6 to 8 people to ensure a safe tent installation.

Step 1: Inventory and Site Layout Clear the installation path and lay out all rafters, spreaders, and 7-foot legs on a protective drop cloth. Organize the components meticulously to ensure all R-pins and fittings are present before beginning the event setup.

Step 2: Roof Frame Assembly Assemble the roof framework at ground level by connecting the crowns to the rafters and the perimeter spreaders. For a 50-foot length, verify that every joint is secured with R-pins or pin-and-bail fasteners to maintain structural integrity and prevent the frame from shifting during the lift.

Step 3: Vinyl Top Placement While the frame is still low to the ground, pull your 12' x 50' vinyl top over the structure. Centering the top and securing it to the perimeter spreaders at this stage is the most efficient way to manage the fabric before the frame is raised.

Step 4: Raising the Frame With a coordinated crew, lift one 50-foot side of the frame and insert the 7-foot leg poles into the fittings. Repeat the process for the opposite side. It is critical to lift in unison to avoid putting undue stress on the aluminum joints over the extreme span.

Step 5: Critical Anchoring Elongated structures are highly susceptible to lateral wind forces. Immediate stake driving and anchoring with heavy-duty ratchet straps at every leg is required. Tension the straps evenly to ensure the structure remains stable, square, and professional in appearance.
