hanging a 27 pound fixture

Recommended Posts

Just weighed my 48" t5 fixture. It weigh 26.2 lbs.

 

Hoping that i can do something similar to this but with 2 arms instead of 1 & coming from the back of the tank not the side.

Im just worried about the weight.

 

Ideas?

I wouldn't hang it off a piece of EMT, but for sure a piece of 3/4" rigid would support the weight.

You could also look at caddy speed link systems to hang it directly from the ceiling if you wanted a different look.

Ok reread your post, you should be good with 2 pieces of EMT. With 2 short 90's like that I don't see a problem with that weight. I would worry if the 90 was longer like the one in the picture, that looks a bit hairy IMO.
