The streamlined look and thoughtful engineering guarantee top of the line performance, even in the most demanding hospitality environments. Our Next Century cast brass hubs are guaranteed for 15 years of regular use, and are available in classic brass color or with added chrome-plated finish.
We offer a range of sizes, shapes, and custom accents to ensure that there is an option suitable for any space. Each individual part can be removed and replaced. Arms are connected with strong, yet simple rivets and carriage bolts to facilitate quick, effortless on-site repairs.
