Tripar®, Inc and Bill Brown Sales are pleased to announce. . .
Bill Brown Sales will represent Tripar®'s line of quality lighting components to the U.S. lighting fixture market.
Bill Brown Sales has a long history of bringing together suppliers and resources that expand and improve our customers' opportunities in the market. Tripar® is no exception.

A maker of metal housings for recessed downlighting, metal decorative housings, and faceplates, Tripar® specializes in metal stamping and deep drawing. By marrying these capabilities with one of the largest lighting component tool inventories in North America, Tripar® is placed in a unique position as a strategic partner to the lighting OEM who is looking to be competitive in the recessed downlight market.

Tripar®'s diverse line of components for recessed lighting includes all the elements required for commercial and residential applications, whether they be for downlight, compact fluorescent, PAR 16, 20, R30, MR16 or GU10 lamps. Components for each of these include Housings in diameters of 3-5/8" and 4"; Trim housings, Baffles, Gimbal Rings or Eyeballs; Standard and Air-Tight Insulated Ceiling (IC) Boxes; Plaster Frames; Outlet Boxes, Bar Hangars, Butterfly Brackets and Retention Springs.

In addition, Tripar® also supplies a variety of canopies that provide unique design options for suspended fixtures, including the low profile canopy used in linear fluorescent lighting.

What makes Tripar® stand out from the competition? All tooling, process and machine automation is designed, engineered and manufactured in Tripar's 65,000-square-foot plant by a team of experienced tool designers and toolmakers. With a custom and semi-custom tooling capability that draws upon more than 50 years of experience, Tripar® offers a great multitude of dies - more than 1,000. Whenever possible, Tripar® uses the same tool-making prowess to modify dies to suit their customers' designs. As a result, tooling is often available at a reduced cost, requiring only partial retooling and minimal modifications.

New Products
Tripar is now offering a new series of baffles and reflectors with mating trims for MR16 & GU10 downlights. The low profile 5" diameter trims accept either their new baffle or reflector. With both parts being separate from the trim, they can be painted the same or in a different color for contrast.

Secure trim and gimbal assemblies (for MR16, GU10, PAR 20, 30) to recessed housing with Tripar's new series of springs. The curved springs are mounted to the trim (curved in or out) to secure a variety of trim assemblies to fit in an equally wide variety of housing sizes. The spring ends bind at any position within the housing with projecting teeth, therefore the trim can always be flush to the ceiling, even if the housing is installed slightly recessed or even canted. A new line of airtight insulation ceiling (I.C.) boxes are now available in a variety of sizes, designed to meet the most stringent of regulations. Containing a double ceiling with airspace of 7/16", the IC boxes are made from 24 GA galvanized steel. Custom holes or other features can be added to suit special requirements. Included with the IC box is a gasketed junction box in which both interior and exterior junction box covers are available.

Unbeatable Combinations
Combine Tripar®'s downlight components with Reflek's Alzak™ Reflectors and Triboro's lampholders for a complete compact fluorescent downlight package. Contact your BBS representative for more information.
