Plastic Rings Lampholder E27 - Black

Description

Description
The Plastic Rings Lampholder E27 is the part a lamp screws into, made up on the flex of a pendant or wired into a lamp. A dark grey moulded lampholder with a broad threaded skirt and a stepped shade ring, topped by a short plain cord entry rising from a domed shoulder. The body carries shallow ribs round each step and a row of small lugs round the skirt. The finish is a fine-grained matt grey, dark enough to read as black at a distance. There is nothing decorative on it and no metal visible apart from the lamp contacts.

It is the part everything else is built around: a shade goes over it, a flex runs into it, and the lamp you choose sets how the light reads. It is a part rather than a finished fitting, so it is bought alongside whatever it is going to carry or connect to rather than on its own. That is the point of buying the pieces separately: the shade, the flex and the holder are each chosen on their own, and a run can be made up to a length and a drop that no finished pendant would give you.

The holder is E27. It is rated IP20, for dry indoor rooms.
