EVT290A-CS30 Black 30 mm (1.18 in) Male Truss Coupler Spacer.
Adds 30 mm to a 290 mm Conical Truss Connection, Finished in Matte Black.
The EVT290A-CS30 Black is a matte black, double-ended male conical aluminum spacer that adds a fixed 30 mm (1.18 in) at one compatible 290 mm truss connection. It has the same dimensional function as the standard brushed aluminum EVT290A-CS30 — the matte black powder coat is a finish choice for truss that stays exposed to view after installation, not a functional difference. It is not a truss section, an independent support point, or a direct load-attachment location.
Product Facts
What It Is
A 30 mm Coupler Spacer with a Matte Black Finish.
This is the matte black version of the 30 mm spacer. Its functional role stays a fixed 30 mm addition at one compatible truss connection — the black finish supports visual continuity on truss that remains exposed to view.
Finish Context
Finish Is a Selection Attribute. It Is Not a Structural Difference.
Choose the black variant when the 30 mm addition is required and an exposed brushed-aluminum spacer would be visually inconsistent with the surrounding truss. The finish does not change connection requirements, load limitations, or engineering requirements.
Application Uses
Match the Finish Where the Truss Stays Exposed to View.
The EVT290A-CS30 Black is used at the same connection points as the standard brushed spacer, wherever the finished truss remains exposed to view after installation rather than concealed behind drape, ceiling elements, or building structure.
Selection Guidance
The Required Dimension Comes First. The Finish Must Also Match the Installation.
Select this product only when the connection actually requires 30 mm (1.18 in), the black finish is required, and the complete joint remains fully engaged with compatible receivers, conical couplers, coupler-pins, and retainers. Do not use it as an adjustable fitting, a generic extension, a repair for damaged truss, or a substitute for a different measured requirement.
What's Included
One Matte Black Spacer. Retaining Hardware Sold Separately.
The EVT290A-CS30 Black ships as a single double-ended male conical spacer with a matte black powder-coat finish. It does not include coupler-pins or r-clips — these must be sourced separately and matched to the completed connection.

System Compatibility
EVT290S, F34, and Matching 290 mm Square Conical Truss Systems.
The EVT290A-CS30 Black is a double-ended male conical spacer for compatible 290 mm square truss connection points. Compatibility with other components requires matching receiver spacing, conical coupler dimensions, chord dimensions, coupler-pin length, retaining hardware, and engineering data for the completed structure.
Installation Conditions
Confirm the Black 30 mm Joint Before It Enters Service.
Installation requires a confirmed truss system requirement, serviceable parts, correct hardware, and a complete inspection before the connection is put into service.
Safety Limits and Review
The Black Finish Does Not Change the Structural Boundaries.
The EVT290A-CS30 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.
Variant Relationship
The Dimension Comes First. The Finish Comes Second.
Choose the spacer whose fixed length matches what the connection requires. Use the brushed CS30 where a black finish is not required by the installation.
Product Questions
EVT290A-CS30 Black Frequently Asked Questions.
What is different about the Black CS30?
It has the same 30 mm (1.18 in) dimensional function as the standard brushed aluminum EVT290A-CS30, finished in matte black powder coat for truss that remains exposed to view.
Are coupler-pins included?
No. The product includes the spacer only — coupler-pins and r-clips are not included and must be sourced separately.
Can I hang from this joint?
No. Do not support loads directly from the spacer connection point.
Should I choose this for the finish alone?
No. Select this spacer only when the connection requires exactly 30 mm (1.18 in); the black finish is a secondary, visual selection criterion, not a substitute for the correct dimensional length.
