How to Measure Your Lamp for a Euro Fitter


Know your lamp needs a Euro Fitter but not sure which size?

 

Euro fitters are available in three sizes. The standard size has an interior diameter of 1 9/16" and this size is the most common. 

  • Small Euro Fitter - 1 3/8"
  • Standard Euro Fitter - 1 9/16"
  • Large Euro Fitter - 1 5/8"


Did you notice that there is only 1/16" difference between the standard and large sizes? This can make it difficult to know if you are choosing the right size. Here's a little trick that will help.

Put a piece of scotch tape around the threads on your lamp that your euro fitter will slide over. This will make the measuring easier.

Next, take a piece of string and measure around the tape. If the diameter is around 4.32", you will want a Small Euro Fitter. If the diameter is around 4.9", you'll want a Standard Euro Fitter, and if the diameter is around 5.10" you will want a large Euro Fitter.

When in doubt, scale up, you can always add a washer underneath the Euro Fitter to stabilize it on the lamp.
