Product Description
Overview
The KUPO ETF-H12 is a 12" half top hat for S4 5° fixtures. The deeper accessory length is intended for very long-throw profile setups where direct lens view and front-face glare can be especially distracting from audience or crew sightlines.
Why It Matters
A 5° lens often lives far from the stage and points through sensitive sightlines. ETF-H12 gives that fixture family stronger half-top-hat coverage, helping mask the lens without turning the accessory into a full cylindrical snoot.
Key Features
- 12" depth provides stronger sightline control for S4 5° applications
- Half-top-hat design reduces lens flare while preserving a less enclosed front opening
- Matt black finish helps suppress reflected spill from the accessory surface
- Designed for very long-throw profile positions where smaller shields may be insufficient
- Purpose-built S4 5° compatibility avoids using shorter accessories for the wrong lens family
Applications
Use it for very long-throw S4 5° positions, especially front-of-house and balcony throws where stronger sightline control is needed.
Compatibility
S4 5°
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the 5° fixture need a 12" version?
The 5° setup is a very long-throw profile application, so the deeper half top hat gives stronger lens masking.
Can this be used on S4 10°?
The specification lists ETF-H12 for S4 5°. Use the 10" version for S4 10° / SL 10°.
Is it a full top hat?
No. It is a half top hat for glare and sightline control from selected directions.
