Description
This is a straight connector for single-circuit lighting track: a short white plastic piece that joins two lengths end to end, so the run carries on in one straight line. It measures 8.8cm long, 1.5cm wide and 1.5cm high, and weighs just 0.02KG, so it adds next to nothing to the weight overhead. It has no lamp socket of its own, and it is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors, in a dry room.
It suits anyone planning a longer track layout than a single length allows. We suggest it wherever one length of track will not reach far enough: across a long kitchen ceiling, down a hallway or above a run of shelves where you want lights spaced evenly from one end to the other. Joining the lengths keeps one tidy, continuous line of track, so every light sits on a single run and the ceiling looks ordered. The white finish sits quietly against a white ceiling, so the join reads as part of the track rather than as an extra piece.
It works on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains supply and has no switch of its own, so the track it joins is switched at the wall in the usual way. The plastic body is light and easy to handle. As with any mains track, a qualified electrician should fit it. Measure your full run before you order, so you know how many connectors your layout needs.

Frequently Asked
Can this connector go in a bathroom or outdoors?
No. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors in a dry room, so we keep it away from bathrooms, outdoor walls and anywhere damp.
What size is the straight connector?
It is 8.8cm long, 1.5cm wide and 1.5cm high, and it weighs 0.02KG, so it is a small, light part.
Which type of track does it join?
It joins two lengths of single-circuit lighting track end to end, so the run continues in one straight line.
Does it hold a bulb?
No. It has no lamp socket, so it holds no bulb; its job is to join two lengths of track, and your lights fit on the track itself.
What material and colour is it?
It is made of white plastic, a plain finish that sits quietly against a white ceiling and keeps the join discreet.
Does the connector have a switch?
No. It has no switch of its own; the track it joins is switched at the wall, on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains supply.
