Rent ARRI 5" Scrim Kit

About the ARRI 5" Scrim Kit

The ARRI 5" scrim kit is designed for output control in smaller Fresnel fixtures with a 5" accessory slot, such as 300W–650W tungsten units. Each scrim is constructed from heat-resistant wire mesh within a rigid steel frame, reducing light intensity without affecting color temperature or beam quality. The kit includes a full double scrim (~1 stop reduction), a half double scrim (~1 stop on half the beam), and a half single scrim (~½ stop on half the beam), allowing for both overall exposure reduction and selective beam shaping. Half scrims are commonly used to balance uneven lighting across a subject or compensate for falloff without repositioning the fixture. All scrims feature standard tabs for safe handling and insertion into the fixture’s front accessory holder during operation.
