Hang Straight 1/8 IPS

Our Hang Straight in 1/8 IPS is used to install fixtures with lamp pipe/tubing to a ceiling canopy. The hang straight can connect directly to your ceiling canopy (note some parts sold separately) and connects to lamp pipe/tubing allowing for your fixture to accommodate modest imperfections in the ceiling level. The hang straight is not intended for use on sloped ceilings that require significant adjustments, but it is a great way to give rigid light fixtures some mobility especially in an environment where a fixture might move or to alleviate strain with a longer tubing connection. The hang straight can also prevent damage should the stiff fixture be moved or bumped for any reason.

This hang straight features exterior threading with 1/4 IPS female threading for mating to the canopy and 1/8 IPS threading to connect with your tubing. In order to facilitate the canopy connection, you will also need 1/4 IPS all thread, a lock washer, and a nut. This item is not used on a corded connection. 

With all lighting projects and DIY fixture assembly, we always recommend consulting a licensed electrician.
