Suspending Objects

Previously, Machine & Tools because it was popular in the way of, a little reprint Saru and Categories.
In the field of media art and installation, you may be suspended from the ceiling and equipment work well.
Means, but things have changed by the situation on the ground or hanging, but it is not difficult to grasp the vital point if there.
Mr. and construction of professional engineers, you can put the precision construction strictly in units of the projector screen 1pixel the house.
To such a high level of construction is required knowledge and skills commensurate, experience, here are the main material and methods used in the ceiling for now.
Suspended material
![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
| Gut The most common ceiling materials. Made of transparent resin, it is difficult to see the benefits. Since not much strength, to hanging of heavy objects is not suitable, however. There is also a drawback because there is a needle knot hard, come gradually and that suspended growth for a long time. Issue number represents the thickness of the gut, will be higher the number, thick. | Wire Standard time of the ceiling. Plated wire or iron wire, mainly two types of stainless steel wire. If you want to use for a long period, where you want to select the latter think that the rust. There is also a product subjected to nylon coating on the outside to prevent fraying. If the wire, the thickness is expressed in mm. | Crimping sleeve In brackets to create a circle with the tip of the wire, basically used as a set with wire. It does not make sense not to use caulking according to the diameter of the wire. In addition, the tightening will use the special tool ※ For information on how to use wire and crimping here | Rod The conditions are limited to some extent, in some cases a combination of hanging pipe and single pipe joint. Hanging high strength, but also easy adjustment, Ino is a drawback, but the look Gotsu. Instead of the pipe material, you may use the long screws. If the length of the screw, you can fine-tune the position of the nut is merit. Strength will drop slightly compared to the pipe material. |

| Heaton Hanging brackets are sold in the typical average, such as 100. Depending on the weight of the hanging material and embed opponent, strength is not hanging so high. | Kang S Like Heaton, hanging bracket is also familiar in the household. There are various sizes, shapes. | Shackle Opening and closing bracket is part of the screw is turned. There is no danger of falling because there is no gap as S Heaton and cans, for high reliability. | Spring hook Also known as the carabiner. There are a variety of shapes and sizes, but also high reliability can be easily hooked is characterized. |

| Eyebolt Head bolt screw is turned in a ring shape. There is something similar with the nut (= Ainatto). | Wire clip Bracket is tightened through two wires. Turn your effectiveness so you can remove, unlike caulking. For safety reasons, the two places I want to use one per location. | Wire hook Through the wire in brackets, you can freely adjust the height. Load capacity is not so big, it will not work if it is about the plane of the normal problem. There is also a type with a stopper for dropout prevention. | Clamp Brackets can not be used in place like, you may also be used as hanging clamp bracket usually like to use as a tool. When tightening, be careful not to damage the target. |

| Hook for lighting rail When you want to use rail suspended from the lighting to install lighting fixtures primarily. For load-bearing strength of the hook is in conjunction with, let's make sure the strength of the rail itself. | Anchor Anchor is the bottom bracket holes in the ceiling or a wall or other structure, the nuts and bolts driven into the structure. Can not be recovered because basically you type them, in principle, such as galleries may not have the opportunity to use the current return. Use by type (such as hollow or secretly) changes of material structure and state. | Magnet Hook If the iron-based substrate, it is also hanging in the power of the magnet. If those of neodymium magnets have been around for cheaper in recent years, can withstand a certain amount of weight. Only as a characteristic of the magnet, suction force that is weaker than the vertical direction in the horizontal direction is better be careful. | Leeds lock Can handle without any tools, metal wire is dedicated bracket. And once through, it can be fixed in the direction of one side is locked. |
Adjustment bracket
![]() | Turnbuckle When hanging on the wire, is essential when fine-tune the tilt and height. For one screw has left-hand thread, making it the length of the entire mechanism is changed by turning the central part of the consolidation. (You can see the ceiling, such as a wire grid) can also be used to apply tension to the wire if you pass between two points. |
