A Large, Heavy-Duty Clamp Lamp Fixture for Reptile Terrariums
The Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp Fixture is one of Zoo Med's most popular reptile lighting fixtures, and the 10-inch (25cm) size is the largest in the lineup. Designed for keepers who need maximum dome coverage and heat direction, this fixture is built from heavy gauge painted aluminum with a ceramic socket to handle the demands of high-wattage reptile basking and heat lamps safely and reliably.
The large 10-inch dome provides a wide reflective surface that directs heat and light effectively into the terrarium, making it well-suited for larger enclosures or setups where a broad, focused basking zone is needed. The ceramic socket allows use with high-wattage bulbs that standard plastic-socket fixtures cannot safely accommodate, giving you greater flexibility in your reptile lighting setup.
The clamp design provides flexible, adjustable positioning on terrarium edges, shelving, or lamp stands. Compatible with the Zoo Med Clamp Lamp Safety Cover (sold separately) for additional protection of your bulbs, animals, and home.
