Long time manufacturer of industrial grade lighting Larson Electronics has announced the addition of a high performance LED blasting light with magnetic mounting base. Designed to provide high output from a small form factor and easily attached to metallic surfaces, the BLWP-40LED LED Blasting Light is ideal for operations where cumbersome tripod or platform work lights are impractical.

Larson Electronics has provided the industrial and commercial industries with high power lighting solutions for over 40 years and has now announced the release of the BLWP-40LED LED blasting light designed for applications where high power illumination from a compact fixture with versatile mounting capabilities is desired. This powerful blasting light is designed to allow operators to mount the light to any surface constructed of steel, iron, or any material which will accept a magnet, and will stay in place even under heavy vibration and movement. This LED work light features a heavy duty aluminum housing that has been powder coated for added durability, shatterproof polycarbonate lens, twelve 3.3 watt LEDs for high lumen output, and a 200 lbs grip magnetic base to provide secure mounting to metallic surfaces under high vibration conditions. Operators can attach this unit directly to machinery and equipment without worrying about the unit slipping or shifting position while working. The waterproof housing allows operation in wet conditions, and the 1,462 lumen output provides a brilliant beam capable cutting through the dust and debris of blasting operations. This light is compact in size and uses only 40 watts, yet produces output rivaling 250 watt metal halide lights, making it less obtrusive and far more efficient. The 200 lbs grip magnetic base is attached with a stainless steel trunnion bracket that allows vertical adjustment of the light once positioned. Power for this light is supplied through an included 12 feet of heavy duty cord with straight blade plug and the unit can operate with standard 120-277 VAC current. This light is IP68 rated waterproof, vapor proof, and designed to withstand the abusive conditions found in media blasting applications as well industrial manufacturing and shipyard operations.
"The BLWP-40LED is a lightweight, high output LED back light that works well for blasting light applications," said Rob Bresnahan with LarsonElectronics.com. "The strong magnetic base holds the light securely to any ferrous metal surface and the heavy duty SOOW cord can survive high abrasion environments. Other applications include automotive repair, blasting, and general shop lighting."
