MAH IP65 36W LED Batten (136/4LED/PC) 1260x90 - Grey

The MAH is an IP65 LED batten light built to take T8 LED tubes on a G13 cap, drawing up to 36W from a 220 to 240V AC mains supply. Rated to run a four-tube format in the 136/4LED/PC build, it puts out a broad, even wash of light across its 1260mm length rather than a focused beam. For trade buyers used to the American naming, this is the fitting sold there as an LED shop light or wraparound, the long surface-run tube that lines a working ceiling. The housing keeps the tubes sealed against moisture and dust, so the output stays clean in spaces where an open fitting would not last.

Long, weatherproof battens like this earn their place in garages, workshops, car parks, plant rooms and damp utility areas, anywhere that needs reliable general light and can put up with knocks and wet. The 1260mm body suits ceiling runs over benches, bays and walkways, and several units can be spaced down a longer room to cover the floor evenly at working height. Because this is task and utility lighting rather than soft ambient room light, judge it on the length you need to cover and the spacing between fittings, fitting them end to end or at regular centres to keep the light level steady across the whole working area.

Construction is a one-piece plastic housing with a grey finish, sealed to IP65 so water and dust are kept out of the tube chamber. It mounts to the ceiling on its fixing points and runs on the linear T8 LED tubes seated in the G13 caps, with the rectangular profile measuring 1260 by 90 by 92mm and weighing 1.23kg. The sealed body is what lets it sit in wet and dusty rooms a standard batten could not handle. The MAH range covers several batten formats, so the right length and tube count can be matched to the run.

Where can this batten be used?

It is well suited to garages, workshops, car parks, plant rooms and damp or dusty utility spaces. The sealed body handles moisture and airborne dust that would shorten the life of an open fitting. It mounts to the ceiling along benches, bays and walkways where steady general light is needed.

Is it weatherproof enough for wet locations?

Yes. It carries an IP65 rating, which seals it against dust and low-pressure water jets, so it copes with exposed outdoor positions and wet indoor areas such as wash bays and damp stores. The grey plastic housing keeps the tube chamber protected throughout.

Can several be linked in a run along a ceiling?

The 1260mm body is designed to sit in continuous or regularly spaced runs along a ceiling. Space them end to end or at even centres down a longer room to keep the light level consistent across the floor. Wiring should follow the manufacturer instructions and be carried out by a competent electrician.

How should the fitting be cleaned?

Wipe the grey housing with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent, with the power switched off and the unit cool. Avoid solvents or abrasive pads that could mark the plastic or affect the IP65 seal. Keeping the surface free of dust helps maintain light output in workshop and utility settings.
