The F44P truss is a 4-point system with an external dimension of 40cm. The system off ers an outstanding load capacity and low deflection, ideal for complex constructions with high loads, along with stage systems and permanent installations. A maximum span of up to 20 meters can be created with this system. The F44 truss is built with 50 x 3mm main tubes and 25 x 2mm diagonal braces of aluminium. The truss pieces are connected with the included conical connectors.
The below load capacity chart applies to Dragon Stage 400mm aluminum box truss manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy.
The chart shows the maximum uniformly distributed load (UDL) under different spans based on standard engineering calculations and safety factors.
Actual load capacity may vary depending on support conditions, connection methods, wind loads, suspended equipment concentration, and local regulations.
Constructed from high-grade 6082-T6 aluminum alloy, this 400mm box truss is designed for professionals who refuse to compromise on safety or performance. The spigot (conical) connection system allows for seamless, tool-free installation, making it a critical component fortemporary stage truss systems for touring productions. Its 50mm main tubes and precision-welded bracing are built to handle significant point loads over long clear spans.
Every segment is manufactured to meet rigorous internationalsafety standards and engineering constraints. Before finalizing your rigging plot, we recommend consulting our guide onhow much weight a lighting truss can holdto ensure your equipment remains within safe operating limits. This 400mm series offers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring durability for years of frequent use in both indoor and outdoor environments.
To maintain the peak structural integrity and professional aesthetic of your investment, it is essential to followbest practices for handling and maintenance of aluminum trusses. Whether you are suspending heavy LED video walls or complex moving light arrays, this aluminum truss delivers the industrial reliability and polished finish that top-tier production managers demand.
1. What are the main advantages of a 400mm profile over a 290mm profile?The 400mm profile provides significantly higher load-bearing capacity and increased resistance to deflection. This allows you to create much longer spans without central support towers, which is essential for large festival stages and heavy overhead rigging.
2. How does the spigot connection improve setup efficiency?The spigot (conical) system uses tapered pins to create a genderless, rigid joint. It is much faster to align and assemble than traditional bolted truss systems and eliminates the risk of vibrating loose, providing a safer and quieter structure during live performances.
3. Is this 400mm truss suitable for outdoor roof structures?Absolutely. Thanks to the corrosion-resistant 6082-T6 aluminum, it is highly suitable for outdoor use. However, for any outdoor installation, we always recommend an engineering review to account for dynamic wind loads and proper ballasting based on your specific geographical location.
