Keep Your Lighting Dome Securely in Place on Screen Covers
The Zilla Dome Spring Clip is a purpose-built mounting accessory designed to secure 5.5-inch and 8.5-inch lighting domes to reptile terrarium screen covers. The clip slides around the cord socket of the lighting dome and fastens firmly to the screen cover, locking the dome in place and preventing it from shifting or falling during daily use.
Compatible with most 5.5-inch and 8.5-inch domes with a socket up to 1.75 inches, this spring clip is the same design included with the Zilla Mini Halogen Dome, now available separately for use with other compatible dome fixtures. It's a simple, effective solution for keeping hot domes safely positioned on screen tops.

Material and Design Breakdown
The spring clip slides around the cord socket of the lighting dome, using the socket as an anchor point to hold the dome in a fixed position on the screen cover. This prevents lateral movement and keeps the dome from falling if the screen cover is disturbed. The design is compatible with most 5.5-inch and 8.5-inch domes that have a socket measuring up to 1.75 inches in diameter.
Setup and Compatibility Guidance
Slide the spring clip around the cord socket of your 5.5-inch or 8.5-inch lighting dome, then fasten the clip to the screen cover. Verify that your dome's socket measures 1.75 inches or less before use. This clip is compatible with most standard Zilla dome fixtures of the appropriate size.
Care and Maintenance
Allow the dome and clip to cool completely before handling. Wipe clean with a dry cloth as needed. Inspect periodically for signs of wear or reduced spring tension and replace as needed.
