S-8 High Temperature Series Lighting Assembly

This lighting system uses a unique combination of materials that withstand higher temperatures while reducing levels of material outgassing.   LCP resin, used for the lighting body and wedge base, enables front and daytime running lamps to continuously operate up to 230C (446F) without negatively impacting the photometric output, as can occur when other materials (e.g. nylons and PPA’s) are used in its place.  Furthermore, the LCP solution saves costs due to reduced cycle times.
