FMS/McMahan Neon Tube Supports
In the early 1930's Arthur B. McMahan began design work on a unique new neon tube support. The resulting design introduced features which are widely used in glass support design to this day. A patent was applied for in February of 1934 and was awarded in January of 1936. Shortly thereafter FMS purchased the McMahan company and patents and we began our tradition of quality and service which has continued for more than half a century.
All our supports are constructed of the highest grade materials for consistent quality, minimum installation time, and years of trouble-free service. Our brass bases are constructed of heavy gauge spring temper brass which has been zinc plated to stand up under corrosive conditions. FMS tie wire is a special tin plated soft copper that remains strong yet flexible for years.
