Asten 400x110 8W LED Bulkhead Cool White - White

The Asten is a slim rectangular LED bulkhead measuring 400 x 110 x 42 mm, drawing 8W to deliver 690 lumens of cool white light at a fixed 4000K. Its wide X120/Y105 beam spreads light evenly across the surface it sits on rather than throwing a narrow spot, which is exactly what you want from a bulkhead. American buyers shopping for an outdoor wall sconce or wall pack will recognise this low-profile format, here built as a tidy 400mm rectangle rather than a bulky housing.

Cool white at 4000K gives a clean, neutral light that suits practical spaces: a porch, a covered entrance, a hallway, a utility room or a bathroom zone that stays clear of direct splashing. The wide twin-axis beam washes the wall and the area immediately around the fitting, marking a doorway or lighting a short stretch of corridor without glare. Mounted at typical wall height it covers an entrance threshold or a passage comfortably, and several can be run along a longer wall or path for an even line of light.

Built from aluminium alloy in a white finish, the Asten carries an IP44 rating, so it handles splashes and sheltered positions such as a porch, carport or covered walkway, though it should be kept out of fully exposed spots, direct water jets and standing water. It is a surface wall-mounted fitting with an integrated LED rated to 25,000 hours, so there is no bulb to replace, and it is not dimmable. The Asten range includes further sizes and outputs in the same white housing if you need to match fittings across a project.

Can the Asten be used outdoors?

It is rated IP44, which means it resists splashing water and suits sheltered outdoor positions such as a porch, carport or covered walkway. Keep it clear of fully exposed locations, direct water jets and standing water, where a higher IP rating would be needed.

Does it take a separate bulb?

No, the Asten uses an integrated LED rather than a replaceable bulb. It delivers 690 lumens of cool white 4000K light and is rated for around 25,000 hours of use, so there is nothing to swap out over its life.

Where is this fitting typically used?

It works well by entrances, porches, hallways, utility rooms and bathroom zones that stay clear of direct splashing. The wide twin-axis beam spreads light evenly across the wall, making it a practical choice for marking doorways and short passages.

How do I clean it?

Wipe the white aluminium housing and the lens with a soft, slightly damp cloth, with the fitting switched off and cool. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can mark the finish; a gentle wipe is enough to keep the light output clear.
