EVT290S Truss Systems Knowledge Center
0.95 Ft Square Aluminum Truss Spacer.
A Straight 11.42 Inch Section Sized to Match a Corner Block.
The EVT290X-029 is a 0.29 m square aluminum truss spacer. Its 290 x 290 mm outside profile matches a compatible corner block, so it takes the place of a corner block where the run continues straight, without adding an unused side receiver. It is built from EN AW-6082 T6 aluminum with 50 mm main chords and 25 mm diagonal braces, and it includes conical connection hardware. Allowable span, capacity, and loading depend on the completed truss system.
Product Facts
Product Overview
A Corner-Block-Size Spacer for Straight Truss Runs.
The EVT290X-029 adds a 0.95 ft / 11.42 in straight section to a compatible 290 mm square-truss run. Because its length and outside width are both 290 mm, it matches the footprint of a compatible corner block. Use it where a corner block is not needed and the run continues straight, helping maintain the square profile without adding an unnecessary side receiver. It is a truss component within the finished system—not a stand-alone solution for span, capacity, rigging, stability, or support design.
Applications
Designed for Straight Truss Segments.
Use the EVT290X-029 where a 290 mm square-truss run needs to keep a corner-block-size outside profile but no corner connection is required. Typical applications include trade-show structures, lighting grids, stage structures, square frames, booth systems, presentation structures, and custom assemblies with many corner blocks. Final configuration, orientation, supports, attachments, loads, and rigging must be reviewed for the actual structure.
Functional Details
Matching-Length Form in 290 mm Square Truss.
The spacer combines a 290 mm straight segment with a 290 x 290 mm square profile, 50 mm main chords, 25 mm diagonal bracing, EN AW-6082 T6 aluminum alloy, and brushed-aluminum finish. It is intended to provide a straight section with an outside footprint comparable to a compatible corner block when the final assembly does not need a side connection. The included hardware supports the spacer’s conical interfaces; it does not independently establish the load rating or suitability of the completed assembly.

System Compatibility
EVT290S, F34, and Compatible 290 mm Square Truss Systems.
The EVT290X-029 uses a 290 mm square truss profile, 50 mm main chords, and a conical connection system. It is intended for compatible EVT290S, F34, and standard 290 mm square-truss systems with matching receiver spacing and conical interface dimensions. Compatibility must be verified at the actual connection, including receiver fit, coupler dimensions, full conical seating, and engineering data for the completed configuration.
Assembly Overview
Installing the Spacer in a Compatible 290 mm Square Truss Run.
This spacer is one component of a completed truss assembly. Before use, verify the finished run length, matching truss size, component condition, full conical seating, hardware engagement, support conditions, and the approved loading for the complete system.
Safety and Loading
The Spacer Size Does Not Establish Allowable System Loading.
The 290 mm spacer is a dimensional component within a larger truss assembly. Its corner-block-size footprint does not independently establish the allowable span, capacity, rigging condition, support arrangement, wind suitability, or load rating of the completed structure. Allowable loading depends on the complete truss system, total span, support conditions, orientation, applied loads, connection details, and the applicable manufacturer data or required project-specific engineering review.
Evidence and Review
What This Page Confirms, and What the Installed Structure Must Still Establish.
This page confirms the documented product facts: 0.95 ft / 11.42 in / 290 mm length, 0.95 x 0.95 ft / 11.42 x 11.42 in / 290 x 290 mm square profile, 50 mm OD x 3 mm main chords, 25 mm OD x 3 mm diagonal bracing, EN AW-6082 T6 aluminum construction, brushed-aluminum finish, 4.08 lb / 1.85 kg weight, TUV certification, and included connection hardware. It does not establish allowable span, capacity, suspension method, support design, rigging configuration, wind suitability, attachment load, or stability for a specific completed structure.
Frequently Asked Questions
EVT290X-029 Questions.
What is the EVT290X-029 used for?
It adds a straight 0.95 ft / 11.42 in section to a 290 mm square-truss run. Because its outside profile matches a compatible corner block, it fits where the run continues straight and a corner connection is not needed.
Can it take the place of a corner block?
Yes, where the run continues straight. The spacer has the same 290 mm length and outside width as a compatible corner block, so it fills that position without an unused side receiver. It does not turn a corner, and you should confirm the dimensions of your own corner block before swapping.
Does it fit EVT290S and F34 truss, and what comes with it?
It is intended for compatible EVT290S, F34, and standard 290 mm square-truss systems when receiver spacing and coupler dimensions match. Each spacer includes four couplers, eight coupler pins, and eight R-clips for its conical connections.
How much load can the spacer hold?
No stand-alone load rating is provided for the spacer. Allowable loading depends on the complete truss system, including span, supports, orientation, connections, and applied loads, so use the manufacturer load data for the full structure and get engineering review where required.
