EVT50A-S170 Black 170 mm / 6.69 in Female Truss Spacer.
A Matte Black Female-to-Female Spacer for 50 mm Tubing and 290 mm Conical Truss Builds.
The EVT50A-S170 Black is a 170 mm / 6.69 in female-to-female aluminum truss spacer for compatible 50 mm / 2 in tubing and 290 mm conical truss systems. Its receiver holes create a fixed spacing bridge between adjoining compatible female truss ends. The matte black powder-coat finish supports visual continuity in black truss, theater, studio, club, scenic, and low-glare layouts. The spacer changes connection geometry at one joint; it is not a truss section, independent support point, or direct load-attachment location. Connecting hardware is not included; verify fit, full coupler seating, pin engagement, retention, and the complete engineered structure before lifting or applying load.
Product Facts
Product Overview
A 170 mm Black Female Spacer for One Compatible 50 mm Tube and 290 mm Conical Truss Connection.
The S170 Black is a female-to-female spacer with receiver holes at both ends. It creates a fixed 170 mm / 6.69 in spacing bridge in a compatible 50 mm tubing and 290 mm conical truss assembly. Its matte black finish is intended for finish-sensitive black truss layouts.
What It Changes
It Adds 170 mm at One Joint. It Does Not Establish a New Structural Rating.
When installed in a compatible conical connection, the spacer creates a fixed 170 mm / 6.69 in bridge. It does not independently establish allowable span, load capacity, pick-point location, support arrangement, or approval for the modified structure. Evaluate the complete system after connection geometry changes.
Selection Guidance
Select the Black S170 When The Layout Requires a 170 mm Female-to-Female Bridge and a Black Finish.
Use the S170 Black when a documented layout requires a fixed 170 mm / 6.69 in spacing bridge, a female-to-female configuration, and a matte black finish. Do not use it as an adjustable fitting, generic extension, damaged-truss repair, or substitute for another measured correction.

System Compatibility
F34, EVT290S, and Compatible 290 mm Conical Truss Systems.
The S170 Black is designed for compatible 50 mm / 2 in tubing and 290 mm conical-connector truss systems, including F34 and EVT290S. Before mixing brands or separately sourced components, verify receiver spacing, conical-coupler dimensions, chord geometry, pin alignment, full seating, and the complete structural plan.
Installation Checks
Confirm the 170 mm Requirement. Then Verify the Complete Connection.
Install only after confirming the required correction, inspecting components, test-fitting the connection, and verifying full seating, pins, retention hardware, and the complete structural plan. Handle the matte black finish carefully to avoid cosmetic damage.
Safety and Engineering
The Spacer Changes Connection Geometry. It Does Not Override System Limits.
The S170 Black is a structural connection component. It does not independently establish a load rating for the modified structure. Do not exceed the capacity of the spacer or modified truss system. Do not support loads directly from the spacer connection point. Review the complete structure for the actual installation.
