Irrigation system having truss rod connector assembly
The present disclosure is directed to a connector assembly configured to receive a truss rod head of a truss rod in an irrigation system. In an implementation, the connector assembly includes a connector body configured to couple to at least one diagonal of the irrigation system. The connector body is also configured to continually maintain greater than one contact area with the truss rod head. In a specific implementation, the connector body defines a socket for securely receiving the truss rod head such that the socket maintains at least two points of contact area with the truss rod head at all times.
