A Clear Prismatic Globe with an Integral Mounting Neck
Fine repeating prismatic texture covers this clear globe shade from its rounded crown to the lower body.
An integral neck opening defines the attachment area and differentiates the form from cut opening globes.
May suit decorative pendant concepts; confirm custom mounting neck requirements and retention details in the intended fixture.
This globe has fine prismatic texture and an integral mounting neck. A cut opening chevron globe uses a different surface and attachment geometry.
The neck identifies the attachment area. Match its inside and outside dimensions, retention system and tolerances to the intended fixture.
The reference diameter is 226 mm and height is 233 mm. Separate neck dimensions and tolerances are needed for assembly approval.
Light distribution depends on the light source and complete fixture. Use photometric evaluation when a defined optical effect is required.
An approved drawing should identify the complete body, neck and any construction joints. Confirm material and assembly requirements before approving the component.
Define the neck support, retaining hardware and installation clearances. Validate the retention method for the approved glass and fixture assembly.
