5-Way T-Junction Overview

A Fixed Junction for 290 mm Square Truss.

The EVT290S-5WT Black is a fixed 5-way T-junction for compatible 290 mm square aluminum truss layouts. It is not a 4-way T-junction, a 4-way cross junction, a 3-way corner, or a universal junction block. Select this component when the project drawing calls for its five specified truss directions.

Product Identity
EVT290S-5WT-Black is the matte-black 5-way T-junction in the EVT290S square-truss family.
Fixed Configuration
The connection layout is fixed. Use this component only where the project drawing calls for the specified five-direction junction.
290 mm Square Profile
The product is intended for compatible 290 mm / 11.41 in square-truss connection interfaces.
Matte Black Finish
The matte black powder coat suits systems where truss should visually recede in a dark stage, studio, AV, or exhibit environment.

What Does a 5-Way T-Junction Connect?

Four Horizontal Directions and One Down Connection.

The EVT290S-5WT Black connects Front, Back, Left, Right, and Down truss directions. Front, Back, Left, and Right form a full horizontal intersection. The Down direction adds a single vertical connection below that intersection. This configuration is used where a planned truss layout requires a horizontal grid or crossbar intersection with a vertical down connection.

Front and Back
Use the Front and Back directions for a continuous horizontal truss line where specified by the project drawing.
Left and Right
Use the Left and Right directions to extend a second horizontal truss line through the intersection.
Down
Use the Down direction for the single vertical truss connection below the horizontal intersection.
Fixed Intersection
The component establishes the connection configuration. It does not establish the completed system’s support, span, or loading limits.

Where Is This T-Junction Used?

For Horizontal Grid Intersections with a Vertical Down Connection.

Use the EVT290S-5WT Black in compatible truss layouts where a full horizontal intersection must connect to a vertical truss section below. The matte black finish is suited to dark or low-visibility environments where exposed truss should be visually subdued.

01
Concert and Touring Systems
Use in planned production grids, lighting systems, scenic frameworks, and technical truss layouts for concert and touring applications.
02
Broadcast Studios
Use in compatible studio lighting, camera, video, and AV truss systems where the truss should remain less visible on camera.
03
Trade-Show Exhibits
Use in compatible exhibit frameworks, overhead display structures, and branded environments where a black finish supports the visual plan.
04
Stage and AV Structures
Use in planned stage, lighting, projection, audio, cable-management, and display layouts where a horizontal intersection requires a down connection.

Why Choose Matte Black?

Choose a Finish That Lets the Production Elements Stand Out.

Choose EVT290S-5WT Black when the truss will be used against dark stage, theater, studio, broadcast, AV, or exhibit backgrounds. The matte black powder coat helps maintain a coordinated black-truss appearance and can reduce the visual prominence of exposed truss within the planned environment.

Stage and Theater
Use matte black truss where lighting, scenery, curtains, projection, and performance elements should remain the visual focus.
Studio and Broadcast
Use in compatible camera, lighting, video, and AV environments where a darker truss finish is specified.
Match Black EVT290S Components
Use with compatible matte-black EVT290S sections and components where the project requires a consistent finish.
Finish Does Not Set Capacity
Finish selection does not change load capacity, connection requirements, inspection requirements, engineering review, or safety obligations.

What Must Match Before Connection?

Verify the Interface Before Combining Components.

The EVT290S-5WT Black is intended for compatible EVT290S, F34-format, and matching 290 mm square truss systems using conical connections. Matching profile size alone does not confirm compatibility. Verify receiver spacing, coupler dimensions, chord spacing, alignment, component condition, current manufacturer documentation, and applicable engineering information.

EVT290S Series
Designed for the EVT290S square aluminum truss series.
F34 Format
Use with F34-format truss only when receiver spacing and Conical Coupler dimensions match.
Other 290 mm Square Truss
Other 290 mm square conical systems require dimensional and engineering verification before components are combined.
Compatible 50 mm Clamps
The main chords accept compatible clamps for approved attachments within the completed system design.

How Is the 5-Way T-Junction Connected?

Plan the Connection, Then Inspect Every Required Point.

Assembly should be completed by trained personnel using compatible components, the project drawing, the approved support or rigging plan, and sufficient hardware for every required connection. The supplied hardware covers two connecting sides only.

01 — Inspect Components
Check chords, braces, welds, receivers, Conical Couplers, Coupler-Pins, and R-Clips. Do not use damaged, worn, contaminated, or improperly fitting components.
02 — Confirm the Layout
Position the T-junction to match the approved Front, Back, Left, Right, and Down project layout before connection work begins.
03 — Plan Hardware
Use supplied hardware for its two included connecting sides. Identify compatible hardware for the remaining required connection positions.
04 — Align Mating Truss
Bring compatible truss faces together evenly. Connections should close without forcing, spreading, or pulling components into alignment.
05 — Secure the Connection
Fully install each required Coupler-Pin and secure every installed Coupler-Pin with its R-Clip.
06 — Final Inspection
Verify retention, component condition, support planning, and the completed configuration before movement, lifting, rigging, or load application.
If a Connection Does Not Close
Stop assembly. Check receiver spacing, coupler fit, debris, hardware condition, damage, and alignment. Do not modify the component or drive a Coupler-Pin against resistance.

Safety and Engineering

A 5-Way T-Junction Is Not a Standalone Load or Span Rating.

The EVT290S-5WT Black does not independently establish a span, load, wind, suspension, or freestanding-structure rating. Determine suitability from the complete configuration, including connected components, spans, orientation, supports, connection hardware, bracing, rigging method, applied loads, lighting, AV equipment, displays, signage, base plates, ballast or anchorage, environmental conditions, venue requirements, and applicable approvals.

Do not use a straight-section load-span table to independently rate this 5-way T-junction or the completed truss system.
Do not treat an individual junction as evidence that a lighting grid, stage structure, AV framework, broadcast installation, exhibit structure, suspended configuration, or public-facing structure has adequate capacity.
Confirm project-specific support, rigging, bracing, base-plate, ballast, and anchorage plans before erection or loading.
Assess wind, banners, screens, displays, suspended equipment, public access, and other operational or environmental forces as part of the complete project review.
Inspect every Conical Coupler, Coupler-Pin, R-Clip, clamp, base connection, sling, shackle, safety cable, and attachment point before use.
Use trained personnel and obtain the project-specific engineering, facility, venue, and regulatory review required for the intended use.
