The triphosphoric phosphor coating inside the frosted glass tube converts the mercury vapour discharge into visible light across a broader spectrum than standard halophosphate tubes, improving colour rendering and perceived brightness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for commercial, industrial and large residential spaces where fluorescent fittings are already installed, the tube fits standard T8 batten and modular fluorescent luminaires. Common applications include warehouses, workshops, offices, retail back-of-house areas, garages and utility rooms with 5ft twin or single tube fittings. The 58W power draw is typical for fluorescent tubes of this length and requires a compatible ballast rated for T8 58W operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frosted finish diffuses the arc discharge and reduces the striping effect visible in clear fluorescent tubes, giving a more uniform spread of light along the 1500mm length. The tube weighs 230g and measures 26mm in diameter, which is the standard T8 profile. Energy rating G reflects the baseline efficiency of fluorescent technology compared to LED equivalents, but the tube remains a cost-effective replacement option where existing fluorescent infrastructure is in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.23\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e58W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLumen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5,250\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Shape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTube\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eG13\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKelvin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3,000K\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarm White\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimmable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLED or Halogen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFluorescent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat fitting does this tube require?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tube has a G13 bi-pin base and requires a T8 fluorescent batten or modular fitting with a compatible 58W ballast.
