What it is
The Athena A-PAR222/38-BN is an A-style track head made to hold a 150W PAR38 lamp on a standard track lighting system. Sometimes called a track lighting head, remote head or gimbal fixture, this style is the go-to choice when you need a robust, adjustable point of light rather than a fixed recessed can. The A-style housing is compact yet substantial enough to properly seat and support a PAR38 bulb, one of the largest common reflector lamp shapes, giving you serious punch when you need to light up a large area or a high ceiling.
Finish and build
Finished in brushed nickel (BN), the housing offers a refined, neutral look that works with both contemporary and transitional interiors. The pivoting head lets you aim the beam precisely, whether you're washing a wall, highlighting artwork, or creating a focused pool of light over a counter or table. Because it mounts on track, you can space multiple heads along the same run and adjust each one independently as your layout evolves.
Electrical and installation notes
This head is designed for a 150W PAR38 lamp and connects to a standard single-circuit track system - no special wiring or transformer is required beyond the track itself. Installation is straightforward: snap the adapter into the track, insert the PAR38 lamp, and aim. This makes it an easy add-on when expanding an existing track run, or a simple building block when designing a brand-new track lighting layout for a home, office, retail space or restaurant.
Where it fits
Use the A-PAR222/38-BN wherever you want strong, adjustable light: over a kitchen island, along a gallery wall, across a retail display, or throughout a restaurant dining room. Pair it with additional track heads on the same run for even, flexible illumination, or mix in different PAR38 beam spreads to create both wide wash lighting and tighter accent spots on the same circuit.
