Between the different shapes, finishes, capacity in terms of weight and lengths of metal beams, and the standards that go with it, the choice can seem complex. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This guide will help you make sense of it all.

The greater the distance, the greater the strength of the steel structure required to support weight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So the load your ConteStage aluminum beam can support depends directly on the span.

Its slim profile makes it particularly discreet and lightweight. Although this structure isn&#8217;t really suited to high load-bearing capacities with weight to support, it can nevertheless be used to hang numerous spotlights on large surfaces, without taking up a lot of visual space.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The DUO 290 can also be used as a stage suspension, as a frame for tarpaulins or screens, and as an ultra-lightweight gantry thanks to a range of accessories suitable for DJs and touring shows alike. A solution in its own right, or as a complement to other structure ranges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button cta\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-luminous-vivid-orange-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/hitmusic.eu\/en\/product-category\/structures-platforms\/truss\/ladders\/duo-290-en\/\">See the DUO 290 range<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"uno-290-simplicite-et-accessoire\">UNO 290: simplicity and accessories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized gamme-img\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hitmusic.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/uno-w.jpg\" alt=\"UNO 290\" style=\"width:400px\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/hitmusic.eu\/en\/product-category\/structures-platforms\/truss\/50-tubes-truss\/uno-tube-50-en\/\">UNO 290<\/a> monotube by ConteStage is an aluminum beam 50mm wide, 2mm thick, with no reinforcement.

Available lengths of 1m, 1.5m and 2m make this range easy to transport in everyday vehicles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Incomparable with 290 mm structures in terms of mechanical qualities or cost, ConteStage&#8217;s DECO series is a compromise between discretion and strength.
