Dragon Stage
Not every event installation needs a heavy decorative truss sleeve.
For stage productions, exhibitions, DJ setups and temporary event structures where the main purpose is simply to hide exposed aluminum truss and create a cleaner black finish, a standard-weight fabric is often the more practical choice.
This DragonEvent black truss scrim uses 190 g/m² stretch fabric and is designed for 300 × 300 mm square bolt truss.
The black fabric helps visually reduce the presence of the aluminum framework, making it particularly useful around black stages, LED screens, lighting equipment and backstage event environments.
The fabric is also fire-retardant, making it more appropriate for professional event use than ordinary untreated decorative fabric.
Multiple lengths can be offered to match different truss sections, with custom lengths available when required.

This version uses 190GSM stretch fabric.
It is positioned as our practical standard option for buyers who primarily need:
Truss concealment
Cleaner stage appearance
Lightweight handling
Easy storage
Repeated temporary installation
Cost-effective coverage for multiple truss sections
For decorative front-of-house applications where heavier fabric and greater coverage are preferred, a heavier truss cover may be a better choice.
The fabric is fire-retardant, an important feature for material used around professional stages, exhibitions and temporary event installations.
Important: Fire-retardant does not automatically mean compliance with a specific venue or national fire standard.
If your project requires a particular certification or test standard, confirm the requirement with us before ordering.
This version is specifically intended for:
300 × 300 mm square bolt truss
Approximate imperial sectional size:
11.8 × 11.8 inches
This is different from our covers intended for approximately 289/290mm truss.
Always check the actual truss sectional dimensions before ordering.
Black is particularly useful when the goal is not to turn the truss into a decorative feature, but rather to make it visually less prominent.
It works naturally with:
Black stage backgrounds
LED video walls
Black curtains
Stage lighting
DJ equipment
Exhibition structures
Different truss sections require different cover lengths.
DragonEvent can therefore offer multiple SKU lengths under the same product page.
The buying sequence is:
300 × 300mm Bolt Truss → Select Length → Select Quantity
Custom lengths can also be produced.
The lightweight stretch fabric is easy to fold, store and transport between events.
This makes it suitable for event rental companies that repeatedly assemble and dismantle temporary truss systems.

Black fabric is a natural choice when exposed aluminum truss would distract from the visual design of the stage.
Instead of highlighting the structure, the black cover helps it blend into the darker stage environment.
LED displays are often surrounded by black cabinets, cables and equipment.
Covering nearby aluminum truss in black can create a more consistent appearance around the LED installation.
For larger suspended LED systems, however, the truss and hanging arrangement remain an engineering matter—the fabric cover itself is purely a decorative accessory.
Black truss covers can help reduce the visual prominence of support truss around stage lighting.

There are three things to check before ordering.
This product is intended for:
300 × 300 mm square bolt truss
Do not choose only by terms such as “12-inch truss” or by appearance.
Measure the actual outside sectional dimensions.
This version is intended for bolt-connected square truss.
If you have a different truss system, especially a different sectional size, confirm compatibility before purchasing.
Measure the individual truss section you want to cover.
For example:
1m truss → choose corresponding 1m cover
2m truss → choose corresponding 2m cover
3m truss → choose corresponding 3m cover
Other lengths can be offered as additional SKUs.
For straightforward installations, use:
1 truss section = 1 matching truss cover
For example:
4 × 2m truss sections
→ 4 × corresponding 2m covers
If only the audience-facing sections need to be concealed, you do not necessarily need to cover every truss section in the structure.
This is especially relevant for rental companies trying to build a practical initial inventory.
The two DragonEvent products now serve different buying situations.
190GSM Black Cover | 280GSM White Cover | |
|---|---|---|
Positioning | Standard / Practical | Premium / Decorative |
Fabric Weight | 190 g/m² | 280 g/m² |
Color | Black | White |
Truss | 300×300mm Bolt Truss | 289/290×289/290mm Square Truss |
Main Purpose | Hide / visually reduce truss | Create a finished decorative appearance |
Typical Situation | Stage, LED, backstage, exhibition | Wedding, DJ totem, corporate, front-of-house |
Fire Retardant | Yes | Yes |
Length | Multiple / Custom | Multiple / Custom |
The choice is therefore not simply:
“190GSM is cheap and 280GSM is better.”
They solve somewhat different problems.
Choose 190GSM black when the goal is mainly to make the truss disappear visually.
Choose 280GSM white when the covered truss itself becomes part of the event decoration.
Buy this cover when:
You already have 300 × 300mm bolt truss + the aluminum structure is visible + you want a cleaner black appearance.
You may not need it when the truss is already hidden behind curtains, scenery or other event equipment.
For rental inventory, I would therefore recommend starting with the lengths you use most frequently rather than buying covers for every truss section you own.
This product is a fabric accessory only.
It does not:
Increase truss load capacity
Strengthen the truss
Replace structural components
Replace safety cables or rigging hardware
Provide weather protection to the truss system
For outdoor installations, adding fabric to a structure can also change how the structure interacts with wind. Do not treat a covered outdoor truss as equivalent to an uncovered truss for structural or wind planning.
Keep the fabric away from open flames and inappropriate heat sources.
If a venue requires a particular fire-retardant certification, confirm the required standard before ordering.
It is designed for 300 × 300 mm (approximately 11.8 × 11.8 in) square bolt truss.
The standard fabric weight is 190 g/m² (190 GSM).
Yes. The fabric is fire-retardant.
If your venue requires compliance with a specific fire standard, please confirm the required certification before ordering.
No. Multiple lengths can be offered, and custom lengths are also available.
Do not assume that a cover made for 300 × 300mm bolt truss will provide the intended fit on a 289/290mm truss.
For 289/290mm square truss, choose the corresponding DragonEvent truss-cover version.
It can be used as a decorative cover in event applications, but covering a structure with fabric can affect wind behavior. Outdoor structural suitability and wind management must be evaluated for the actual installation.
If your main goal is practical black concealment of truss, 190GSM is the standard option.
If the truss itself is a visible decorative element and you want heavier fabric with better visual coverage, the 280GSM premium version may be more appropriate.
For individual covered sections, a practical starting calculation is:
Number of visible truss sections = number of matching covers.
Then select the appropriate length for each section.
