Description

This is a 5ft batten fitting built around a single T8 linear tube rated at 58W. The body measures 1500mm end to end, finished in light grey, with a clear moulded diffuser running the full length and clips spaced along it to hold the two halves together. The IP65 rating is the part that matters most: a sealed housing of this kind keeps dust out completely and stands up to water jetted at it from any direction, which is why battens of this sort get specified where an open fitting would fill with debris or catch the odd splash.

It is specified for indoor use, and it suits the places where light has to work rather than decorate: garages, workshops, stores, plant rooms, cellars, utility rooms and covered service areas. A 5ft batten lays a long even band of light down a bench or an aisle rather than a pool under one point, so two run parallel will cover a double garage with little shadow in the corners. Because the rating is IP65, the fitting is suitable for bathroom zones 1, 2 and 3, though not for zone 0, which is the inside of the bath or shower itself.

The fitting is not dimmable, so wire it to an ordinary switch rather than a dimmer circuit. Brightness and colour temperature come from the tube you fit rather than from the fitting, so pick a cool white tube where you want a crisp working light and a warmer one where the space is used for longer stretches; check the wattage marked on your old tube before you buy a replacement. The manufacturer does not state whether a tube is supplied. Each order is for one fitting, with a minimum order of one, and it sits alongside our wider range of battens in 4ft, 5ft and 6ft lengths, including IP20 fittings, LED battens and emergency versions.

Frequently Asked

Which tube does this fitting take?

It takes one 5ft T8 linear tube rated at 58W. Check both the diameter marking and the 1500mm length on any tube you already have before ordering.

Is a tube supplied with the fitting?

The manufacturer does not state whether a tube is included, so treat the tube as something to confirm or source separately before installation day.

Can I use it in a bathroom?

The IP65 rating makes it suitable for zones 1, 2 and 3, but not zone 0, which is inside the bath or shower. It is specified for indoor use.

Can the light be dimmed?

No. The fitting is listed as non-dimmable, so run it from a standard switch rather than a dimmer plate or a dimming circuit.

How bright is it and what colour is the light?

Neither is fixed by the fitting. The tube you choose sets the lumen output and the colour temperature, so buy the tube to suit the room.

Will it cope with dust in a workshop or garage?

Yes. IP65 means the housing is dust tight and sealed against water jets, which is exactly why this style is used in dusty indoor spaces.
