Description

Star Hanger cable and connector hardware, is manufactured by a well-known ocean-sailing company. The hardware has an attractive nautical design, and it looks strong, because it is.

Ceiling Structural Connection

There are two options for structural ceiling connections: exposed or hidden.

For exposed structural connections use either: Pad Eye or Eye Screw; both stainless steel.

Hidden structural connections are generally covered by finished drywall.
A good option, is to use a 1/4" - 20 Beam Clamp connected to a threaded rod. – There should be a few inches of the threaded rod exposed through the finished ceiling. After the ceiling is finished, the exposed rod is cut to 1/2" and cleaned up, ready for the Ball Connector.
