Event Lighting 290mm Box Truss Ladder Style (0.42m) Black T3BL042BK

The Event Lighting 290mm Box Truss Ladder Style (T3BL042BK) is a structural workhorse for stage rigs, lighting arrays, and PA installations demanding reliable vertical or horizontal support. Built from 6061–T6 aluminium alloy with a 2mm wall thickness throughout, this compact 0.42m segment combines robust engineering with manageable weight, making it a practical choice for mid–scale live sound and lighting deployments where structural integrity can't be compromised.

The truss features a 290 × 290mm box profile with 50mm main and vice braces, plus 20mm diagonal bracing for lateral stability. TUV–rated load tables confirm the span's capacity across multiple scenarios: at 1m span it handles 2500 kg uniformly distributed or 2500 kg centre point load; at 6m span that drops to 250 kg distributed or 700 kg centre point. Black powder–coated finish resists weathering and UV degradation. Critical note—chords must face downward when used horizontally to maintain full load ratings; incorrect orientation voids all weight specifications. Australian Engineering Certificate and comprehensive user manual included.

The three–year warranty covers manufacturing defects across stage, touring, and installation applications. Pairs readily with industry–standard clamps, safety wires, and mounting brackets to customise rig geometry. Load–bearing capacity diminishes predictably at longer spans—9m spans support 120 kg uniformly distributed—so span planning is essential for larger cantilevered or suspended configurations.
