Description
When flawless image quality is essential, Rosco Custom Glass Gobos deliver superior, razor-sharp results. Modern high-powered LED profiles generate intense heat. As a result, standard steel patterns can warp or degrade quickly. Therefore, these premium glass gobos use a tough Borofloat substrate. Consequently, they handle continuous operating temperatures up to 400°C. This ensures your custom artwork remains perfectly stable throughout a West End theatre production, a busy corporate exhibition, or a live broadcast.
Rosco is the world’s leading manufacturer of entertainment lighting patterns. Because they make their own dichroic glass, they offer complete control over the CMYK colour palette. This specialized process allows for unique metallic gradients and subtle pastel shades. Furthermore, it guarantees precise batch-to-batch consistency. Therefore, any subsequent replacement or duplicate orders will match your original design exactly.
Key Features of Rosco Glass Gobos
-
Ultra-Thin Substrates: These range from just 1.1mm for black and white to 1.9mm for multi-colour designs. Consequently, the thin layers ensure a perfect focal plane. This reduces distortion and delivers sharp focus across the entire beam path.
-
Precise Coating Technology: Rosco achieves microscopic detail on the glass surface. Therefore, this prevents image feathering. In addition, it permits complex line work and high-definition photographic gradients.
-
Versatile Type Options: You can choose Black & White or greyscale photographic styles. Alternatively, you can opt for fully saturated colour glass gobos to bring complex branding to life.
-
Universal Fixture Compatibility: We supply these to order in any size from 8mm up to 110mm. Thus, they fit profile spots like the ETC Source Four, as well as automated fixtures from Robe, Martin, Clay Paky, and Chauvet.
