Hi.
I currently have this type of lighting truss :

And these type of hanging brackets :

The clamps are no use as the screw to tighten cannot tighten to the back to secure the lights. Shown below :

Can anyone with experience of there trusses tell me the best type of clamp to ensure a nice secure hold.

The lights I'm using on them are chauvet intimidators 1.2 and njd datamoons.
Thanks, it will be much appreciated to make my life a tad easier.

The problem is, you've got 50mm clamps, these are for the standard theatre IWBs (Internally wired bar), also the same width as standard scaff.#

You need 30 or 35mm clamps (i forget which is the correct measurement).

These are GREAT...(They span pretty much any bar width including the 30/35mm abd 50mm bars - useful when you're jumping rig sizes).

Note: These do not fit the Ultimax square bars used on their deck stand...which is a shame....:( (A standard 30/35mm clamp will though :d)

Am I the only one that hates screw-in clamping?
