Primacoustic recently announced a new collection of hardware that will make
hanging acoustic baffles and clouds a breeze: the Corkscrew™, the SlipNot™, and
the Helix™.
Primacoustic’s Jay Porter had this to say: “The new hanging systems multiply the
uses and functionality of several of the Paintables™ and Broadway™ panels. Our
installation hardware has always been well recognized for its ease of application
and these new systems are certain to please integrators looking for tried and tested
options.”
The Corkscrew™ is designed to create a vertical baffle using any type of Broadway
or Paintable panel. It is a ‘spring shaped’ tensioned steel eye-screw that twists into
the edge of the panel for placement overhead. Combining the Corkscrew with the
SlipNot enables the panel to be quickly adjusted to achieve a uniform height. The
Corkscrew is the ideal attachment for hanging Primacoustic’s new collection of
Paintables or Broadway panels in a vertical ‘baffle’ arrangement.
The SlipNot™, designed to suspend Primacoustic clouds and baffles, is a unique
suspension cable system that combines aircraft steel rope with a cam-style
releasable hook for easy height adjustment at one end and a simple eye-sling at the
other. One merely attaches the sling to a suspension point and clips the hook onto
the Primacoustic cloud or baffle using either the Corkscrew or Helix panel mounting
screws.
The Helix™ is a solid zinc die-cast device that integrates an eye hole and a screw
that, when twisted into the panel, becomes a reliable and sturdy installation that
transforms any Primacoustic panel into an acoustic cloud. The Cloud is then hung
overhead using the adjustable Primacoustic SlipNot™ suspension system. This
makes the Helix an excellent choice for hanging Primacoustic’s new collection of
cloud Paintables™ including the Hexus (hexagonal), the Cirrus (circular) and the
Altos (square). It also works great with any Broadway panel to create a horizontal
acoustic cloud.
The Helix, Corkscrew and SlipNot are now shipping.
