#1483 Plaster Frame

Commercial Plaster Frame

Until now, our largest plaster frames (our 1283 series) contained reinforcing edges on only the two long sides, required the addition of pair of our 1280 Bar Hanger Brackets onto the narrow ends, and labour involved in riveting them on. It was also limited to a length of 15-11/16”, unless it was produced on our CNC laser at an added cost.

Tripar is pleased to offer our new 1483 series plaster frame in the same 12-1/8” width, available in both regular and Ultra-Airtight (gasketed) models, containing the following additional new features:

    1. Available in virtually any length; as short as 8”, and up to 120” long!
    2. Customizable hole size, including multiple holes and locations – whatever your requirement.
    3. 1” tall reinforcing edges on all 4 sides for much improved stiffness.
    4. Integral Bar Hanger pockets on the two ends; eliminating the need for two 1280 Bar Hanger Brackets.
    5. Face rivet holes for attaching our 1232 series junction boxes near any one of the 4 corners.
    6. To permit vertical adjustment with our 1254 Butterfly Brackets, contains side rivet holes for attaching our 1253 Sliding Brackets in multiple configurations, including our COMBAR system.
    7. Anti-vibration feature – Embossed ridges apply lateral pressure against bar hangers, eliminating any vibration noise.
    8. Bar Hanger locking tabs – Bend at your option so angled edge clinches on bar hanger.

Hybrid Manufacturing

New Product Bulletin – Tripar’s Hybrid Manufacturing

Using our progressive and deep draw metal stamping capabilities, we have developed a wide range of standard items for downlight/recessed lighting which we produce in huge volumes and stock to allow us to offer these at the lowest possible price. By contrast, our CNC laser & press breaks were being used when quantities were lower and couldn’t justify a die. These two capabilities have morphed into what we now refer to as ‘Hybrid Manufacturing’. Tripar’s Hybrid Manufacturing uses these two key strengths; metal stamping and CNC laser, allowing us to offer high volumes products that benefit from the lowest unit price, with the option to be highly customized.

Metal Stamping Overview
  • Specialize in progressive and drawing & deep
  • Inventory of over 1,500 existing
  • In-house tool room means Fabrication, modification and maintenance of all dies are done at
  • Using or modifying an existing die means getting a high quality stamping quickly to market at a competitive price, without the expense and lead time of creating a brand-new
  • Over 100 state-of-the-art presses (up to 200 tons).
CNC Laser Overview
  • Amada CNC laser
  • Perfect for low quantities
  • Ideal for customizing high volume die stampings
  • Great for prototyping
  • Cuts any metal; steel, aluminum, stainless &, copper

The perfect example of this is our I.C. Boxes with a customized Plaster frame. The I.C. Box, Brackets, junction box, covers, Plaster frame (blank) and bar hangers are all stocked items made in progressive dies, using our Metal stamping capabilities. The blank plaster frame is then placed on our CNC Laser allowing customized hole(s) to be cut.

Benefit from low-cost high-volume stampings produced in dedicated dies, with the option to be customized using our CNC laser and other metal fabrication equipment.

Universal Retention System

New Product Bulletin – Universal Retention System

Mousetrap spring retention is a known concept, though it must invariably be integral to the trim. Not anymore!

Our new universal retention system can be added to almost any ceiling application.

With our new & simple Spring Retainer, our Mousetrap Springs can be added to almost any trim. Simply rivet the 3/4” wide x 7/8” tall Spring Retainer onto opposing side walls of most any trim, then snap on our mousetrap springs.

The upward force applied by the springs holds trims securely to the ceiling, yet allows removal with a downward pull.
