No — this connector is designed for metric M10 threaded rod or hook (1.5 mm pitch). If your lamp uses 3/8‑inch IPS (imperial pipe), you’ll need an adapter or choose our imperial version. However, M10 is the most common size for European‑style pendant lights and modern industrial fixtures.
Yes. The solid brass body and integrated T‑washer are rated to hold up to 55 lbs (25 kg) with correct installation. Always ensure the threaded rod is securely anchored into a ceiling joist or rated electrical box. The thick washer distributes the weight to prevent stress on a single point — ideal for medium to heavy fixtures.
208 brass is a lead‑free or low‑lead copper‑zinc alloy compliant with modern safety standards. It is perfectly safe for decorative hardware and lamp components. However, we always recommend washing hands after handling raw brass, and do not use it for food contact surfaces.
Natural, unlacquered brass will develop a unique antique patina with exposure to air and oils. If you prefer the bright polished look, simply wipe with a soft cloth and a mild brass cleaner (like Brasso). For a “raw industrial” look, leave it untouched — the patina adds character and won’t affect structural integrity.
Each unit includes one integrated I‑connector with T‑washer (machined as a single solid piece). M10 threaded rods or mounting screws are sold separately. We recommend pairing with a high‑strength M10 steel rod or brass rod for the best aesthetic match.
Yes, brass is naturally corrosion‑resistant and performs well in humid environments like bathrooms or covered outdoor patios. However, if exposed to direct rain or salt air, we recommend applying a clear lacquer or occasional wax coating to preserve the original shine.
