Aluminium Truss System 0.5M, 1M, 2M, 3M ( Best Quality)

Aluminium Truss 29 x 29 cm – Durable Structural Truss for Events and Installations

The Aluminium Truss System is a professional 290 × 290 mm square truss available in 0.5 m, 1 m, 2 m and 3 m straight sections. Manufactured from EN AW-6082 T6 aluminium with 50 × 2 mm main tubes and 20 × 2 mm diagonal braces, it is designed for stage lighting, exhibitions, event structures and ground-support applications.

Technical Specifications

Available Lengths and Reference Weights

*Reference weights are based on a professionally manufactured F34 290 mm system using the same 50 × 2 mm chord and 20 × 2 mm brace specification. Minor weight differences can occur between production batches and connector configurations.

Professional 290 × 290MM Square Truss

The 290 × 290 mm square format is one of the most widely used truss sizes in professional event production.

Four main aluminium chords create a rigid box structure, while diagonal bracing distributes forces between the tubes. This geometry makes the truss suitable for horizontal lighting spans, vertical towers and modular event structures when used within the engineering limits of the complete system.

The 290 mm format also provides enough space for common stage-lighting clamps to attach to the 50 mm main chords, allowing moving heads, PAR lights, strobes and other professional fixtures to be positioned along the structure.

EN AW-6082 T6 Aluminium Construction

The truss is built from EN AW-6082 T6 aluminium, a structural aluminium alloy widely used in professional entertainment trussing.

It combines:

• High strength relative to weight

• Corrosion resistance

• Lower transport weight than steel

• Dimensional stability

• Suitability for repeated assembly

• Durability for touring and rental applications

This makes the system practical for event-production companies that repeatedly transport, install and dismantle truss between venues.

50 × 2MM Main Tubes

Each truss section uses approximately 50 mm-diameter main chords with 2 mm wall thickness.

The 50 mm tube size is widely used across professional stage truss and is compatible with many lighting clamps designed for approximately 48–51 mm round tubes.

This allows compatible:

• Moving head clamps

• Half couplers

• Lighting hooks

• Safety cables

• Rigging accessories

to be installed at appropriate positions on the main truss chords.

20 × 2MM Diagonal Bracing

The main tubes are connected by 20 × 2 mm diagonal braces.

These braces create the triangulated structure that gives the square truss its rigidity.

They are structural members and should not automatically be treated as mounting points for heavy fixtures. Professional lighting equipment should normally be attached to the main chords using correctly rated clamps unless the truss manufacturer's engineering information specifies otherwise.

Four Length Options for Flexible Stage Design

Having 0.5 m, 1 m, 2 m and 3 m sections allows production crews to build structures to more precise dimensions.

The shorter sections are useful for fine adjustments, while longer sections reduce the number of connections required across larger structures.

0.5M Truss
Useful for spacing adjustments, short extensions, compact towers and custom structure dimensions.

1M Truss
A flexible size for lighting totems, display structures, small towers and short horizontal runs.

2M Truss
Suitable for medium lighting spans, exhibition structures, event backdrops and modular stage setups.

3M Truss
A practical option for longer lighting runs, stage grids and larger event structures where fewer connection points are preferred.

Different lengths can be combined to create the dimensions required for a project.

Fast Conical Connection System

The truss uses a conical connector system designed for fast professional assembly.

A typical joint uses:

• Conical aluminium connector

• Tapered truss pin

• R-shaped safety clip

The conical shape helps align adjoining truss sections while the pin locks the joint into position.

Compared with conventional nut-and-bolt truss, this format can reduce assembly time during event setup and dismantling.

Modular Truss for Expandable Structures

One of the main advantages of this system is its modular design.

Straight sections can be combined with compatible:

• 90-degree corners

• Six-way corner blocks

• Sleeve blocks

• Base plates

• Top plates

• Tower sections

• Chain-hoist top sections

• Ground-support bases

• Truss connectors

This allows the same straight truss inventory to be used for different types of events and installations.

Suitable for Stage Lighting

The 50 mm main chords provide suitable mounting surfaces for compatible professional lighting clamps.

The truss can form part of structures supporting equipment such as:

• Beam moving heads

• Wash moving heads

• Spot moving heads

• LED PAR lights

• Strobe lights

• Effect lights

• Laser fixtures

• LED display systems

• Compatible AV equipment

All equipment must remain within the engineered loading limits of the complete truss configuration.

Horizontal and Vertical Applications

The square geometry allows compatible truss sections to be used in both horizontal and vertical structures, depending on the engineered installation.

Horizontal applications include:

• Lighting grids

• Stage spans

• Exhibition structures

• Entrance arches

• LED screen frames

Vertical applications include:

• Truss towers

• Moving-head totems

• Ground-support towers

• Exhibition columns

• Lighting display structures

Vertical freestanding installations require an appropriately sized base and may require ballast or additional stabilisation.

What Size Is the Aluminium Truss?

The truss uses an approximately 290 × 290 mm square profile, also commonly described as 29 × 29 cm or 12-inch-class truss.

It uses four 50 mm main chords connected with 20 mm diagonal bracing.

What Lengths Are Available?

The Aluminium Truss System is available in:

• 0.5 m

• 1 m

• 2 m

• 3 m

Different lengths can be connected together to create the required stage or event structure.

What Aluminium Is Used for Professional Stage Truss?

This 290 mm professional truss format uses EN AW-6082 T6 structural aluminium alloy.

The material is commonly selected for professional truss because of its strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance and suitability for repeated event installations.

How Much Does Each Truss Section Weigh?

Equivalent professional F34 sections using the same geometry are approximately:

• 0.5 m: 5.45 kg

• 1 m: 8.17 kg

• 2 m: 13.17 kg

• 3 m: 18.16 kg

Actual unit weight can vary slightly depending on weld pattern and connection hardware.

Can I Connect Different Truss Lengths Together?

Yes. The modular connection system allows compatible 0.5 m, 1 m, 2 m and 3 m sections to be combined.

For example, a 5 m straight run could be built using a 3 m and 2 m section where the structural design permits that configuration.

Can I Hang Moving Heads From This Truss?

Yes. Compatible stage lights can be mounted to the 50 mm main tubes using appropriately rated lighting clamps.

Every suspended fixture should also use the required secondary safety attachment.

How Much Weight Can the Aluminium Truss Hold?

There is no single safe load figure for every truss setup.

Permitted loading depends on the total span, support points, number of connected sections, load position, whether the load is distributed or concentrated, and the engineering data for the complete truss system.

For example, a 3 m piece of truss does not automatically have the same permissible load when incorporated into a 3 m span and a 12 m span.

Always use the applicable manufacturer load table for the completed structure.

Can This Truss Be Used Outdoors?

Professional aluminium truss can form part of an outdoor structure when the complete system is correctly engineered.

Outdoor installations require additional consideration of:

• Wind loading

• Ballast

• Ground conditions

• Tower stability

• Roof coverings

• Banners

• LED screens

• Suspended equipment

Outdoor load-bearing structures should be designed and installed by qualified personnel.

Can It Be Used as a Ground-Support Tower?

Compatible 290 mm square truss can be incorporated into professional ground-support tower systems using the appropriate base, sleeve block, top section, chain hoist and stabilisation components.

The complete tower configuration must follow the engineering requirements of the selected system.

Rigging & Safety Requirements

The Aluminium Truss System is structural event equipment. Its safe loading cannot be determined from tube dimensions or section length alone.

Before every installation, inspect:

• Main aluminium tubes

• Diagonal braces

• Welds

• Conical connectors

• Truss pins

• Safety clips

• Corners and junctions

Do not use truss showing cracks, bent chords, damaged welds, elongated pin holes or significant deformation.

Never drill, weld or modify structural truss components without approval from the manufacturer or a competent structural professional.

The stated loads for any structure must be based on the applicable engineering tables and the complete span and support configuration. Professional load-bearing truss structures should be installed by qualified rigging personnel.
