Truck-Lite offering new lamp

Heavy-duty lighting and visibility systems company Truck-Lite Co. has added the 44 Series Stop/Turn/Tail & Back-up Combination Lamp to its roster.

In a release, the company it said the U.S.-made lamp performs the job of two in just one unit and is available in flange or grommet mounts. “The lamp also features a hardwired connector for tight-packaging applications, and 3-position LED Fit ‘N Forget AMP connectors that are compatible with existing connection points on the vehicle harness,” it said.

When properly installed, it meets or exceeds FMVSS 108 requirements, even on vehicles more than 80 inches wide. “The stop function offers the same appearance and performance that the market has come to appreciate, and its distinct back-up feature provides a clear indication of the white reverse signal without impairing the effectiveness of the stop/turn/tail lamp when both are illuminated, thus staying true to Truck-Lite’s commitment of providing the safest and highest-quality visibility systems on the market,” the company said.

The lamp also fits standard four-inch round mounting holes to ease retrofitting. “Furthermore, just one of the new 44 Series combination lamps will meet the FMVSS requirements for back-up function, which can save costs on the OEM level by eliminating the need to drill additional mounting holes,” the company said. This, it added, “economically and safely serves the purpose of systems that typically require more lamps.”

The lamps can be ordered using the following parts numbers: 44550R, 44551R and 44556R.
