Built to be aimedThe RIGID CHY2 is a
gimbal LED recessed fixture: the light head sits in a ring that tilts and turns through a full
360° rotation, so you can re-aim the beam long after the drywall is painted. The black trim is the default 4" version, and because the module and trim ship as one kit with the driver included, installation is a single step instead of a parts hunt. Turolight also offers the
RIGID Series trim in brushed nickel, gold and white, and a 3" trim that fits the same module when a smaller aperture is wanted.
Light quality you can tuneA
40° beam is narrow enough to create real accents — a countertop, a bookcase, a feature wall — without the flat, washed-out look of a wide flood.
CRI 80+ keeps colours honest, and the
5 CCT switchable feature lets you pick
2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K or 5000K on site: warm for a bedroom, neutral for a hallway, cool for a garage or a work zone. Buy one model for the whole job and decide the mood at the end.

Wiring and installationCut a
2 3/4" to 2 7/8" hole, connect to a standard
120V circuit, set the CCT switch, and clip the module in — the housing only needs 2 1/2" of height, which helps in tight joist bays and dropped bulkheads.
Type IC means the fixture can be in direct contact with insulation, a real advantage in Canadian attics and renovated ceilings, and the
FT6 cable suits plenum-type requirements in commercial work. Use a quality
TRIAC (leading-edge) dimmer and keep all the fixtures on a circuit at the same CCT setting for a uniform look; the
damp location approval covers covered porches, soffits and bathroom ceilings outside the shower spray.
Where it works and what fits itThink kitchen perimeters and islands, hallways, staircases, walk-in closets, basements, and commercial spaces like boutiques, clinics, cafés and reception areas where adjustable accents do the selling. For finish coordination across one project, the same module is offered as
4" round gold gimbal recessed light and
Rigid CHY2 4" brushed nickel, and the
3" black trim for RGD-CHY2 converts this unit to a smaller aperture. The full technical PDF spec sheet, with the dimensional drawing and ordering table, is in the Documentation tab.
