Maximum diameter 32mm, Height 48mm. Choice of 10mm M10 threaded entry or 1/2" 26tpi threaded entry B22 (22mm), reducing to 7mm cable aperture. B22 Bayonet Cap with Shade Ring, Flameproof ceramic insert, Brass plunger contacts and wiring terminals. Integrated hollow EARTH terminal - wires from the inside, so no wires are visible externally - Made in the UK. WARNING: All electrical work should be undertaken by persons competent in the wiring and installation of these items. If in any doubt, please consult a qualified electrician. All metal electrical fittings must be earthed; all metal ElekTek products have earth terminals where required. Review: Very good - Product is exactly what I ordered and is good quality however the product was left on front doorstep despite instruction to the contrary and a note on the door explaining where to leave parcels. The quality of the lamp holder is sturdy and good value. I notice in the one star reviews that people say that they can't unscrew the base and that it's jammed - that's because the shade ring is right next to the fastening ring and is acting as a locking nut. You just need to loosen the shade ring and you'll find the lamp holder will become easy to disassemble by holding the body firmly and turning the bottom fixing ring clockwise to unscrew. Review: 10mm bottom thread bayonette holder - it's fine. Reasonable quality, has an earth point as it's metal, 10m female bottom - oh oerr matron. all good. ## Features - Standard UNSWITCHED B22 (22mm) BC Bayonet Cap Lamp Holder with shade ring - suitable for bulbs up to 200W (for SWITCHED B22 version, ElekTek Safety Switch available in separate listing) - Maximum diameter 32mm, Height 48mm - 10mm M10 or 1/2" 26tpi threaded entry, reducing to 7mm cable aperture. This 22mm BC (bayonet connector) lamp holder is intended primarily for attachment to a male 10mm or 1/2" threaded tube - Integrated hollow EARTH terminal, wires from the inside so no wires are visible externally - Internal locking screw mounted in a separate riveted & threaded base ensuring your lighting does not come apart with use (beware of cheaper, pressed type bases that cannot carry a locking screw) - loosen screw, thread onto existing threaded fitting and tighten locking screw before wiring - Hand assembled - easy to separate for fitting: simply remove the thin upper shade ring by unscrewing anti-clocwise; hold base with the Earth terminal pinched between thumb and index finger and unscrew thicker lower ring by unscrewing anti-clockwise.
