48-inch T8 LED replacement for fluorescent fixtures

This 48-inch LED tube replaces linear fluorescent lamps in commercial and residential fixtures. It operates on direct-wire Type B circuits, so the existing ballast must be bypassed during installation. The case contains twenty glass tubes rated for damp locations. Buyers needing plug-and-play ballast-compatible tubes or dimmable operation should choose a different product.

Type B ballast-bypass wiring required

Each tube draws 14 watts and delivers 1800 lumens at 4000 K colour temperature through a medium bi-pin base. Dual-ended power means sockets do not need to be changed, but the fixture must be rewired to supply mains voltage directly to both ends. The lamp is non-dimmable and will not function with a ballast in circuit.

Case of twenty sleeves for multi-fixture projects

The pack supplies twenty individually sleeved tubes, simplifying handling and protecting the glass during bulk installation. Rated life is 50000 hours, reducing relamp frequency in offices, retail spaces and warehouses. No driver or ballast is included because the design connects directly to line voltage.

Questions about this item

How much light will I actually get from the 1800 lumen rating in a typical office fixture?

Each tube delivers 1800 lumens at 4000K, directly replacing a 32-watt fluorescent while drawing only 14 watts.

What does the Type B ballast-bypass design mean for my existing wiring?

You must rewire the fixture to supply line voltage directly to the dual-ended Medium Bi-Pin bases; the existing ballast is removed and no driver is needed.

Will the 48-inch glass tube fit my current T8 troffer without changing sockets?

Yes, the dual-ended Medium Bi-Pin base fits standard T8 sockets, but the tube will not work in T5 or T12 fixtures.
