Help needed for lighting suspension

Phil Jayhan · 05/11/2016, 01:23 AM

I am hoping that someone can help with suspending an Aquatic Life LLC light fixture. It is model LF2-48 and the light suspension kit has been discontinued. In searching the internet high and low, no kits are available.
There are 4 screws (2 on each end) in the top that are removable for the suspension kit. The fixture was brought to the hardware store in the hopes of getting screws to screw into the fixture and then secure thin cable wire through it. The store said that no screw that size with a hole in the top to secure the wire through is nothing a hardware store sells.
Can anyone please help with finding these screws?

That's exactly what we are looking for Vinny! Thanks so much for your quick, speedy reply! We have been looking for light suspension kits, found one at Amazon, but it was such a rip-off refused to ever buy it. (40 dollars!) Now I know where to get the hardware, where I assume will be priced within reasonable range.

Thanks!
Phil

No problem, I was looking myself one day.

Have you ordered from them? Do they sell to the general public? I didn't see any prices, but want to hang an aluminum canopy over my tank and want to make it look neat. They seem to have everything I need.

Only have the website -- Have not ordered anything from them.
