With a 100-minute fire rating, this fitting helps maintain the fire integrity of the ceiling, preventing the rapid spread of flames and smoke through the aperture created by the downlight. Constructed from diecast aluminium with a clean white finish, this downlight combines robust durability with a discreet appearance that blends seamlessly with white ceilings. The fixed orientation provides consistent downward illumination, making it suitable for general lighting in residential and commercial spaces where fire safety standards must be met.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEngineered for straightforward installation, this fitting features a Twist N Lock arrangement that simplifies fitting and ensures secure positioning within the ceiling. Requiring a 70mm cutout, the downlight accommodates GU10 bulbs up to 50W (sold separately), with compatibility for LED, halogen, or compact fluorescent lamps. The 85mm diameter bezel provides a neat finished appearance, while the 120mm height allows for installation in standard ceiling voids. Ideal for applications where building regulations require fire-rated downlights—including multi-occupancy dwellings, apartments, and commercial premises—this fitting offers both reliable illumination and essential fire safety compliance in a single, integrated unit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKey
