Martin VDO Fatron Curving Coupler Angled rigging coupler (positioning only, not load-bearing)

Where a straight run of VDO Fatron blades needs to bend around a curved truss, a stage lip or a scenic radius, the curving coupler links two adjacent blades at an angle instead of end to end. It is one of the rigging pieces in Martin's VDO Sceptron/Fatron/Dotron accessory system, alongside the sliding brackets and half-couplers that actually carry the fixture's weight.

The curving coupler is a positioning part, not a load-bearing one: Martin's own rigging guidance is that every VDO Fatron fixture in a run still needs to be supported by a sliding bracket or half-coupler clamp, with the curving coupler only setting the angle between blades.
