Two metal hanging loops on top provide dual-point suspension for safety rigging in venues where the ball is hung above occupied areas. At 800mm diameter and 20kg weight, the ball produces dense reflections across mid-to-large spaces when struck by pin spots or moving heads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for nightclubs, ballrooms, theatre productions and events rigging, the QTX ball suits ceiling heights of 3.5m or higher where the 800mm diameter can rotate without obstruction. The 7mm tile size creates a tighter grid of reflections than larger 10mm tiles, giving a denser sparkle effect when lit by narrow-beam pin spots. The dual hanging points allow the ball to be rigged from two ceiling fixings or a single swivel with a bridle, distributing load across two attachment points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe polyethylene core reduces weight compared to polystyrene or foam-filled alternatives, making the 20kg mass easier to rig on standard truss or ceiling fixing hardware without additional structural support in most venues. Each mirrored tile is hand-applied to the core, so minor gaps or alignment variation between tiles is normal in production mirror balls. The polished surface of each 7mm tile reflects sharp pin spot beams across walls, ceilings and floors when the ball rotates on a motor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e800mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20.0kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat ceiling height is needed for an 80cm disco ball?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA minimum ceiling height of 3.5m is recommended to allow the 800mm ball to hang and rotate without risk of contact with guests or furniture below. Higher ceilings of 4-5m give better reflection spread across the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this ball be used with a motor?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The dual hanging loops accommodate standard mirror ball motors with a bridle or single-point swivel attachment. The 20kg weight suits most professional mirror ball motors rated for 20kg or higher load capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size tiles does it use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe QTX 80cm ball uses 7mm square mirrored glass tiles.
