Westcott 40-Degree Egg Crate Grid for Rapid Box Switch 1' x 4'

The Westcott 40-Degree Egg Crate Grid is designed to give you greater control over your softbox light, helping you shape and direct it exactly where you need it. Ideal for strip softboxes, this grid narrows the beam spread while maintaining the soft, flattering quality of light that makes softboxes so popular. Whether you're working in a studio or on location, it’s an essential accessory for reducing spill and adding precision to your lighting setup.

The Perfect Accessory For

  • Photographers needing tighter control over strip softbox output.
  • Creating rim, edge, or hair lighting with clean separation.
  • Reducing unwanted light spill in controlled environments.
  • Filmmakers looking to minimise flare and maintain contrast.

Key Features

  • 40-degree beam angle for controlled, directional light.
  • Designed specifically for Rapid Box Switch 1' x 4' strip softboxes.
  • Maintains soft light quality while narrowing spread.
  • Deep cell design for improved light control and performance.

Focused Light Without Losing Softness

Grids work by controlling off-axis light in multiple directions, allowing you to keep the softness of your light while adding direction and control. This makes them particularly effective when you want to highlight a subject without lighting the background, or when working in tighter spaces where spill can become an issue.

Designed for Real-World Use

The increased depth of this grid improves performance compared to shallower designs, giving you tighter control and cleaner results. It attaches securely to your softbox with durable touch fasteners and features a labelled edge for quick, hassle-free setup.

What’s Included

  • 40-degree egg crate grid for Rapid Box Switch 1' x 4'

Simple, effective, and something you’ll use more than you think.

William ★★★★★

Fits snugly onto the 1x4 Rapid Box and the 40-degree grid really tightens up the falloff, so it's easier to keep light off the background. I've been using it for product shots and the control is exactly what I needed without any light leak around the edge.

Violet ★★★★★

The honeycomb pattern is really precise, so the light falloff is exactly what I wanted for my tight product shots. Took a bit to figure out the velcro attachment, but once it’s on—it stays put.

Ryan Y. ★★★★★

The 40-degree grid slots right into the Rapid Box Switch with zero fuss, and it kills the spill on my 1x4 perfectly for tabletop shots. I’ve been using it for portraits too, and the falloff is exactly the controlled look I wanted.
