2.2m - 3.5m Pipe & drape system crossbar
The 2.2m - 3.5m adjustable pipe & drape crossbar (also known as telescopic horizontal drape support or backdrop rod) is a lightweight aluminum component in modular pipe and drape systems, used to span widths between uprights and support hanging drapes, backdrops, banners, or lightweight decorations for events, trade shows, weddings, photo booths, and stage setups.
It offers flexible width adjustment for varying booth or backdrop sizes, typically in smaller to medium spans.
Key highlights:
- Width range: Telescopically adjustable from approximately 2.2m (7.2ft) minimum to 3.5m-3.6m (11.5ft-11.8ft) maximum, often with button-stop locking for secure positioning (some models allow stepless adjustment via compression collar)
- Construction: Durable anodized aluminum tubing (typically 1.5" / 38mm diameter, two-piece telescopic design) for strength, corrosion resistance, and clean drape contact
- End fittings: Hook or ball-crown ends that securely slot into upright tops (compatible with standard slotted or modern ball-socket systems)
- Advantages: Tool-free setup, portable (collapses for transport), even weight distribution for reduced sagging; supports typical drape loads (15-35 lbs distributed, depending on model)
- Ideal for professional, quick-deploy temporary drapery walls or dividers
It's an essential, versatile piece for customizable event draping configurations.
