This satin chrome fire rated GU10 tilt downlight combines essential fire safety compliance with directional lighting flexibility, offering a premium solution for apartments, multi-occupancy dwellings, and commercial spaces where both safety regulations and lighting versatility are required. The 100-minute fire rating ensures that in the event of a fire, this fitting helps maintain the fire integrity of the ceiling, preventing the rapid spread of flames and smoke through the aperture while providing critical time for occupant evacuation. Constructed from diecast aluminium with an elegant satin chrome finish, this downlight delivers robust durability alongside a refined, contemporary aesthetic that complements modern interior schemes.

Designed for both safety and flexibility, this fitting features a Twist N Lock arrangement for secure, tool-friendly installation within the ceiling. Unlike fixed versions, this tilt downlight allows the lamp holder to be angled, enabling precise directional lighting for accenting artwork, architectural features, or creating focused task illumination. Requiring an 83mm cutout—slightly larger than fixed fire-rated versions—the downlight accommodates GU10 bulbs up to 50W (sold separately), with full compatibility for LED, halogen, or compact fluorescent lamps. The 103mm diameter bezel provides a substantial yet refined ceiling presence, while the satin chrome finish offers the practical benefit of resisting fingerprints and water spots, making it an ideal choice for fire-rated applications where both style and adjustability are required.

5. Is this downlight suitable for bathroom use?
This fitting has an IP20 rating, which is not suitable for bathroom zones where moisture or water spray is present.
