Brass Oval Caged Bulkhead Ship Light and 50 similar items

Brass Oval Caged Bulkhead Ship Light. Retrofitted for use as 240V E27 brass fitting. This ship light is of solid brass construction with a rough cast appearance and aged glass cover. Salvaged from the massive 1950’s era ship breaking yards in Bangladesh. Fit to walls or ceilings using the four mountings that are bolted into position. Powered by conduit connection and so some fiddling with elbows may be required for a clean installation. Connect to external mounted conduit for an authentic look using brass plumbing fittings and copper pipe. We suggest brass and copper water pipe fittings to match the look and feel. This solid brass ship light is designed to be secured directly to the ceiling in areas where there is no height for a pendant. This is an original ships component refitted to 240V and earthed using an earth tag internally behind a 10mm threaded entry Brass Lamp holder. The two wingnuts undo to provide a hinge for the brass cage which had a rubber sealed glass dome in thick old glass. Bulbs are replaced through this front hinged cage. These were originally stamped IP64 but re polishing has removed the mark. We would consider these to be IP Rated however careful installation is required to achieve this.
