Being seen for the first time is Doughty's all steel Beam Clamp which, with a wide adjustment range of up to 200mm, makes a flexible and versatile rigging point for hoisting equipment, pulley blocks or loads. With a forged eye and a central threaded spindle for easy attachment and safe and secure grip, the Beam Clamp has a safe working load of 1000kg.
Complementing Doughty's Quick Trigger range of clamps, the Baby Quick Trigger clamp is intended for use on smaller truss sizes, adjustable to diameters of 25mm up to 38mm. With TUV approval pending, the Baby Quick Trigger clamp will be available in polished aluminium or satin black.
Doughty is using ProLight+Sound (Hall 9.0, stand E91) to preview its new, lightweight spring Pantograph, suitable for smaller TV and photographic studios. The intended load rating of 0-10-kg makes it suitable for lighter weight luminaires. Available in aluminium or black anodised finish and two sizes, 2m and 3m, shipping is anticipated for September.
