2.3 Fixings

One of the strengths of the Color Block 2 fixture is its flexible fixing possibilities. The Color Block
2 fixture is supplied with an integral M10 clinch nuts at each end. These can be used to attach
the Color Block 2 fixture to a standard hook clamp or the wide range of Color Block accessories
listed below.
Note: Damage may occur if the bolt is too long (M10x16 maximum). In addition, both sides of
the fixture feature a fixing slot designed to accept an M6 bold head.
The Color Block 2 fixture also features an integral connection system to enable up to five units
to be locked together as a batten (see below).
Note: it is important to ensure that each fixture is also secured with a safety bond. The end
plate of each fixture has a fixing hold to facilitate secondary fixings.
a. Integrated connection system
One end of the Color Block 2 fixture features two protruding locating pins and a catch plate, the
other end has two keyhole slots and a butterfly latch.
1. To connect two fixtures together, firstly mate the two protruding pins from one fixture into
the keyhole slots of the other.
2. Then slide the fixtures together so that they are aligned correctly, taking care to get past the
extended catch plate.
Note: This will be stiff on new fixtures and a twisting action may ease assembly.
3. Finally use the butterfly latch to secure the fixtures together tightly (max 5 units together).
Note: It is important to ensure adequate ventilation to the rear of all Color Block fixtures. Never
place the fixtures directly on the floor pointing upwards when configured as a batten.
