We still appreciate your effort to reply though loonytoon. But I think that screwfix product is being discontinued, it says 'stock clearance' and it looks to be unavailable to order on line or collect from may trade counters.

I usually call them 'biscuits' and tend to know what i'm on about when asking for them

 

[Robin Spark]

Bet they love you at the wholesalers asking for tee and biscuits.

One thing I have done in the past when I've been caught out without one is, get a half round file, make off the end of the mini trunking and shape the end to match the base of the batten LH. Cut a little piece out of the back of the mini trunking and using a wood chisel or other suitable tool, chip a slot in the material you're mounting it on so the cable/s can go behind it and into the back. If you do it right it can look very neat but it can take a little practice.

Dont forget the M4 screws. There seem to be 2 main makers of these. The one-piece generally comes with screws, but half the time they are missing. The two-piece doesn't so you need to get some.

 

[steptoe]

some of them are 3.5 screws,

so you know where to get those from,

No, no, no biscuit rings are a flat plate that goes between a ceiling rose and the ceiling to cover any discrepancies when fitting a new rose. Are these still availible ?

 

[steptoe]

:C

dunno

havent seen those in yonks.!

 

[Zeespark]

MK at least made them at one point in time, named them halo's I do believe.
