Because of the strength of aluminium stretcher bars, cross-bars are not necessary for lengths under 150 cm.
To have a cross-bar on the short dimension the frame needs a solid Centre Bar.
For the longer cross-bar dimension the frame will need a pair of Half Bars. These are cut to fit exactly. -

Museo 45mm Aluminium Stretcher Bars
Starting at: £23.10
Museo aluminium stretcher bars stretchers are a museum grade aluminium wood composite bar 45mm deep. The wooden edge strip is made of laminated pine and allows easy stapling at the back of the canvas. These deep edge stretchers have a 27mm lip to raise the canvas away from the bars. The aluminium body gives excellent stability, making these bars completely resistant to warping. The strength of the aluminium also means that fewer cross-bars are needed to support the stretcher frame. The stretcher frame can be re-tensioned using an Allen key.
Please note that the price of the bar includes all the fittings.
