The booth was permanently packed with visitors wanting to be among the first to witness the global launch of the new IP65-rated G-Spot, and make sure it lived up to its claim of superior optics and weather-resistant body. A constant stream of water splashing across the chassis left no-one in any doubt.

But equally important, SGM has built up a family of loyal and highly-motivated resellers during the intervening period and the company CEO was able to welcome partners from across the world to a pre-show dinner, awards presentation and distributor conference, so they were primed for action when the curtains were raised on the opening day.

Once again, Peter Johansen, made sure everybody got what they came for - with a bol

Steve Wells, operations manager at RML said of the new investment, "The Sharpy has been such a successful purchase for RML, when we heard about the Sharpy Wash 330, we had to see it. The unit is extremely diverse and the multi function aspect means that the lighting designer has so many more options when using them. The concept that you could have a whole rig of just one type of fixture, but are able to create a much more varied look, is potentially a very exciting one."

Once in place, the retaining bolt is then screwed through the Clip Nut in a civilised manner to secure the rack device or panel into place.

Currently PAS's Threaded Rack Rail Clip Nuts are available as standard in black or silver, and with M6, M5 or 10/32 threaded holes.
