Optronics International has announced the introduction of its new Fusion Thinline surface-mount LED combination stop, tail, turn and backup lamp. The new lamp combines stop, tail, turn and backup functions in a common bar light format, so named for its long, thin configuration.

“Our Fusion LED combination lamps captured the attention of the industry in 2014, and set a trend with their innovative lamp consolidation technology and convenient surface-mount design,” Brett Johnson, president and chief executive officer of Optronics International, said. “With the introduction of our new Fusion Thinline surface-mount LED combination stop, tail, turn and backup lamp, Optronics signals its intention to continue to set the pace for commercial vehicle lighting.”

At 20.5 in. long, 1 in. wide and 3/4-in. thick, Fusion Thinline surface-mount LED combination stop, tail, turn and backup lamps can be mounted virtually anywhere on a vehicle, including vehicle body panels, frame posts, docking plates or gussets. The low-profile surface-mount design hugs the vehicle surface and lets users avoid cutting large mounting holes that can reduce structural integrity and promote corrosion, the company said.

The company expects to begin shipping the new Fusion LED combination stop, tail, turn and backup lamps, part number STL264RB, in early spring 2017. The lamps meet all FMVSS 108 photometric requirements for visibility and safety, according to the company. Lenses and housings are made of polycarbonate material that is sonically welded. The lamps employ a solid-state, surface-mount device (SMD) design that protects their electronics against moisture, shock and vibration. The Fusion lamps come with no-hassle, one-diode lifetime warranty protection that will replace the lamp if even one diode fails.
