16mm Rod & Clip System Posted on May 8, 2014May 29, 2014 by admin Our 16mm Rod is available in Clear Acrylic and can be cut to your requirements. We make the 1m and 1.1m long āDā Rods as standard, but can make any size āDā Rod as required. The 16mm “D” Rods and front loader clips for the Optical frames. The Fixing Flanges are screwed to the wall and the rods are pushed firmly into place. Brian Davey in Maroochydore has used the acrylic “D” Rods on the Acrylic backing panels. The backing panels are in Blue and Snow Satin Ice cut with the wave pattern. The different clips can be seen here on our acrylic risers. These small counter top displays are great to use in window displays and when you want to highlight just a few frames. Available in a variety of sizes.
