Apollo Design Technology ME-9072 Steel Gobo, Trophy Buck

Metal gobos are crafted by laser cutting stainless steel, allowing light to pass through and project a white pattern. For colored effects, a color filter can be incorporated into the fixture.

To maintain structural integrity, metal gobos necessitate "bridging" - tiny connecting lines within the design. Without bridging, enclosed areas like the center of the letter 'O' would collapse.

Apollo's metal gobos are fabricated from 8 mil stainless steel rich in nickel and chromium, ensuring durability, intricate detailing, and longevity.

In contrast, competitors utilize 5 mil stainless steel with a higher carbon content, prone to rust and quicker deterioration.

Notably, a magnet won't adhere to Apollo gobos due to their stainless steel composition, whereas competitors' carbon steel gobos are magnetic.
