PTS-2 Parallel Track Switch

These switching devices are designed for cyclorama applications where it is necessary to move curtains from an "outer" track to an "inner" track (or vice versa) in a perimeter system. Simply by pulling down on a pendant, the track is shifted and the curtain(s) can them be moved from the inner track to outer track or visa-versa, making the standard 2 track perimeter systems used in studios, even more flexible. This switch is currently available for the Model 1400 track only.

Approximately: 57" long x 18" wide Standard track spacing is 8". Option 6" or 12" spacing available upon request.
