Description
EVT290S-075 | 0.75 m (2.46 ft) Square Aluminum Conical Truss Section (290 mm Medium-Duty)
The EVT290S-075 Square Aluminum Conical Truss Section is a 0.75-meter straight segment for 290 mm square conical truss systems — the short precision piece that closes out frame sections, bridges between longer runs, and controls spacing in modular builds where every centimeter of the layout is accounted for. At just under two and a half feet and 14 pounds, this is the segment that lands on a parts list when the grid doesn’t divide evenly into full-meter lengths, when a goal-post build needs a specific top chord width, or when an overhead frame requires a compact filler between a corner block and the next straight. Exhibit designers holding exact booth tolerances on a convention floor, touring lighting engineers adjusting grids to fit rooms that change every few days, scenic fabricators framing compact set pieces with clean repeatable geometry, and permanent install contractors filling precise gaps in fixed ceiling grids all pull the 0.75 m because the layout calls for exactly this length and nothing longer will fit without overshooting the target dimension.
Function & Compatibility:
The EVT290S-075 connects through a conical coupler system — tapered pins and R-clips, not bolted end-plates. This is the industry-standard quick-connect method used across the global 290 mm truss market: couplers seat into the chord ends, tapered pins lock the joint, and R-clips secure everything in place — no wrenches, no torque specs, and a connection that goes together in seconds and comes apart just as fast. The section shares the same 290 mm square cross-section, chord spacing, and coupler geometry as every other EVT290S component, and it is compatible with F34-standard truss systems from other manufacturers operating on the same 290 mm conical platform. Built from 6082-T6 aluminum alloy — a high-strength structural grade with excellent corrosion resistance — with 50 mm main chords and 20 mm diagonal bracing spanning the full 0.75 m length for complete lateral rigidity as a standalone structural segment.
Key Features
- Short Precision Segment: A complete 0.75-meter (2.46-foot) truss section with full diagonal bracing — the compact length that fills dimensional gaps, closes out frame runs, and controls spacing in tight modular layouts where longer sections would overshoot the target dimension.
- Conical Quick-Connect System: Ships with conical couplers, tapered pins, and R-clips — the tool-free connection method that assembles and strikes in seconds, making it ideal for touring rigs and multi-venue builds where load-in speed directly affects schedule.
- Professional Brushed Finish: Standard brushed aluminum surface consistent with every other silver EVT290S component — uniform appearance across mixed-length builds without surface variation between sections.
- High-Strength Alloy Construction: Fabricated from 6082-T6 aluminum — a structural-grade alloy with superior strength-to-weight ratio and natural corrosion resistance, carrying the same material specification as every other section in the EVT290S family.
- F34-Compatible Geometry: 290 mm square profile with standard conical coupler chord ends — cross-compatible with F34-standard truss systems from other manufacturers using the same coupler format and cross-section dimensions.
- TÜV Specifications: Manufactured under TÜV-certified production processes — the 0.75 m section carries the same engineering certification as every other straight length in the EVT290S catalog.
Who It’s For
- Exhibit Designers & Trade-Show Builders — You’re working within strict floor-plan dimensions on a convention floor where every booth, archway, and overhead signage grid must hit exact layout tolerances. A 0.75 m segment lets you close out a frame section or bridge between longer runs without custom fabrication — holding the precise spacing needed for product display canopies, branded entrance structures, and overhead banner grids that must align with booth boundaries marked to the centimeter by show management.
- Touring Lighting & Audio Engineers — You’re packing and unpacking the same truss system in different venues every few days, and no two rooms measure the same. A short conical section gives you the flexibility to adjust lighting grid widths and speaker hang point positions to fit the venue you’re in today without carrying dedicated custom pieces for every room on the tour. The conical pin-and-clip assembly goes together in seconds during a load-in that started before sunrise and needs to be show-ready before doors — and comes apart just as fast at strike when the truck is already backing up to the dock.
- Scenic Fabricators & Set Builders — You’re framing backdrops, building structured overhead elements, and constructing movable set pieces for film, television, and theater productions where visual clean lines and repeatable geometry matter as much as load capacity. A 0.75 m segment slots into compact scenic builds — short enough to frame a practical doorway header, a low-profile display shelf, or a lightweight overhead valance without the visual bulk of a full-meter section, and the conical connection gives you a smooth joint profile that reads cleaner on camera than a bolted plate.
- Facility Managers & Permanent Install Contractors — You’re building or extending fixed lighting and AV grids in houses of worship, conference centers, and entertainment venues where the ceiling layout calls for precise spacing between fixtures, rigging points, or motorized hoist positions. A 0.75 m section fills the specific span that a 1-meter or longer section would overshoot, and the conical coupler system lets maintenance crews disconnect and reconnect sections during fixture upgrades or grid reconfigurations without specialized tools or recalibrating torque on bolted joints.
- Rigging & Structural Engineers — The EVT290S-075 is a fully braced 290 mm square conical truss section built from 6082-T6 aluminum under TÜV-certified manufacturing processes. It carries the same structural authority as every other length in the EVT290S series and appears on an engineered drawing as a standard cataloged component. Refer to the official EVT290S load tables for allowable loads at the total span length and support configuration in your design.
Designed by Evolve Truss, the EVT290S-075 is the short conical section that makes every 290 mm layout land on the right number — a 0.75-meter piece that fills the gap, holds the tolerance, and connects in seconds.
⚠️ Safety & Engineering Notice
❗ Critical Load Rating Information: The rated load capacity for this 0.75 m segment is determined by the complete system configuration — total span length, support conditions, and loading type all influence the allowable capacity. For precise specifications, always refer to the official EVT290S Truss Series Load Tables for the span you are building. Consult a qualified engineer before use.
Important Guidelines for Safe Use:
- Inspect all conical couplers, tapered pins, and R-clips for wear, deformation, or damage before every use.
- Ensure tapered pins are fully seated and R-clips are properly secured at every connection point.
- Do not mix truss components from different manufacturers unless the conical coupler geometry and chord dimensions have been strictly verified for compatibility.
- The purchase of this product does not authorize specific installations; a licensed professional engineer shall review all structures, lighting plots, or other aluminum truss uses.
⚠️ Compatibility Notice for Mixed-Brand Builds
Important Steps for Safe Assembly:
- Verify Coupler Fit: Conical coupler dimensions vary between manufacturers. Test-fit connections before committing to a mixed-brand assembly.
- Check Chord Alignment: Ensure chord spacing and coupler seat depth match precisely to prevent uneven loading at the joint.
- Mixing incompatible conical truss can compromise connection integrity and lead to structural failure.
