When Black Truss Needs a Larger Correction,
Add 20 mm Without Introducing a Silver Joint.
The EVT290A-CS20 Black is a matte black, double-ended male conical aluminum spacer that adds a fixed 20 mm / 0.79 in at one compatible 290 mm truss connection. Select it when the approved layout requires a 20 mm correction and the exposed joint needs a black-finish component. It is not a truss section, independent support point, or direct load-attachment location.
Identity and Core Facts
What It Is
A 20 mm Spacer for Black-Truss Connections That Must Stay Visually Coherent.
This is the matte-black version of the 20 mm spacer. Its functional role is a fixed 20 mm correction at one compatible truss connection; its black finish supports visual continuity in exposed black-truss systems.
Finish Context
A 20 mm Geometry Decision Can Also Be a Finish Decision.
Select this variant when the approved correction is 20 mm and the connection is exposed within a black-truss layout. Matte black finish does not change the structural limits or eliminate the need to verify full connection engagement.
Selection Guidance
The Required Dimension Comes First. The Finish Must Also Match the Installation.
Select this product only when the approved correction is 20 mm / 0.79 in, the black finish is required, and the complete joint remains fully engaged with compatible receivers, conical couplers, pins, and retainers.
System Compatibility
EVT290S, F34, and Matching 290 mm Square Conical Truss Systems.
The EVT290A-CS20 Black is a double-ended male conical spacer for compatible 290 mm square truss connection points. It adds 20 mm / 0.79 in at one connection. Compatibility with other components requires matching receiver spacing, conical coupler dimensions, chord geometry, pin length, retaining hardware, and engineering data for the completed structure.

Safety Limits and Review
The Finish Does Not Change The Need for Complete Joint Verification.
The EVT290A-CS20 Black is a structural connection component. It does not establish a load rating for the modified structure. Do not exceed the capacity of the spacer or the truss system it modifies, and do not support loads directly from the spacer connection point.
Product Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is different about the Black CS20?
It has the same 20 mm dimensional function as the brushed CS20, with a matte black powder-coat finish.
Are pins included?
No. The product includes the spacer only; coupler pins and cotter pins are not included.
Can I hang from this joint?
No. Do not support loads directly from the spacer connection point.
