And like all the products we've made since then, the SnapLight fixture was developed to solve a critical need of industry: an easier- to-maintain fluorescent lighting fixture. The SnapLight fixture offers a number of innovative, labor-saving features. It's easy to maintain because the diffuser is hinged to the fixture housing—it swings down and away for easy relamping. The reflector is held in place with captive quarter-turn fasteners. This \ \ feature eliminates loose hardware. When released, the reflector drops about four inches and is held in place by two detachable wire ropes. All electrical components are mounted on the reflector plate for quick and easy removal. What's more, the SnapLight fixture is available in three types of housing materials: marine grade aluminum, glass filled polyester and steel. The interior module is compatible with all three types of housing so stocking is simplified. Exposed hardware—fasteners and latches—is made of non- magnetic stainless steel.
