License lamp installs without needing tools

July 31, 2013

Truck-lite Co LLC has expanded its Flex-Lite LED product line with the release of the new LED 36 Series license lamp.

The LED 36 Series lamp adheres directly to the mounting surface through use of heavy-duty adhesive backing, with an easy-to-install, peel-off liner, eliminating the need for tools during installation. This adhesive is made with industrial-strength compounds and endured rigorous pressure washing tests. Truck-Lite’s adhesive was also tested for extreme temperature tolerance. The LED 36 Series lamp maintained its locked seal in temperatures ranging from –40°  to 85° C.

There are two lamp options to choose from: one lamp has wires that exit from the side (PN# 35145C); the other has wires that exit from the rear (PN# 36140C). The side-exiting wire lamp provides a license lamp system that does not require mounting brackets or installation screws. Although the rear-exiting wire lamp can also be directly mounted to the surface, it also offers gray and black brackets, if preferred.

Truck-Lite backs this license lamp with a limited lifetime warranty. When properly mounted, the lamp is designed to meet or exceed requirements of CMVSS/FMVSS 108. The electronics, which offer multi-volt technology that adjusts from 10 to 30 volts, are completely sealed in epoxy to resist damage caused by moisture, corrosion, shock, and vibration. Its 20-gauge wires measure 9.25" long with 0.80 bullet connections. The external optic is very small. Truck-Lite’s LEDs draw much less current and are rated at 100,000 hours.

Truck-Lite’s three-quarter inch license lamps include: clear lamp with side exit wires (36145C), clear lamp with rear exit wires (36140C), and are now available to order. Lamps are also available for purchase as a kit: clear lamp and gray bracket (36041C), clear lamp and black bracket (36042C). Individual brackets can also be ordered: gray (36710) or black (36711).
