"What I like about being a lighting designer is that you have to use both sides of your brain at all times. On one side it is collaborative, creative work, on the other it’s working with all the technical aspects. When you’re in the groove, it’s just great."

Tech Support Tip of the Month: Use a Pin Spanner Wrench to Tighten Tee Head in Moving Light Hangers |
|
|
|
Moving Light Hangers enthusiasts: Have you ever needed a way to tighten the Tee Head (P/N 135) component in your Moving Light Hanger system a bit more? This is something that has come up for lighting professionals using Moving Light Hangers for permanent installations in environments with constant vibration, like cruise ships. As a result, our Engineers have added a new design feature to the Tee Head: a ¼” hole on the side of the Tee Head that can be used for extra tightening in a Moving Light Hanger system using a McMaster #5475A16 Pin Spanner Wrench for Holes on The Side. Learn more in our cut sheet for 135 Tee Head product.
