Lenses disperse light to reduce glare and protect bulbs from damage. Cut to size using a band saw or shears.

Solid lenses keep bulbs hidden and distribute light evenly. Lenses with a prismatic or cracked ice pattern distribute light better than smooth lenses. Smooth lenses for LED lights scatter the directed light of an LED better than other solid lenses.

Egg crate and parabolic lenses have an open construction to allow more light through than solid lenses as well as more air circulation to cool bulbs. Parabolic lenses are reflective to direct light downward, which reduces glare.

Polystyrene lenses are the most economical, but they may yellow over time. Acrylic lenses won't turn yellow over time. Polycarbonate lenses are more impact-resistant than acrylic lenses, but they may yellow over time. Aluminum lenses withstand higher temperatures than plastic lenses.

With a lower profile design than other bay lights, linear bay lights mount closer to ceilings, providing more room for racks or shelving. Use them in large, open areas such as warehouses and manufacturing spaces where the ceiling is up to 40 ft. high. Rated for use in damp locations, these lights withstand humidity and moisture. They can be hardwired to operate on any of the voltages listed.

Style A and C lights require suspension hardware (sold separately), which includes two wire rope slings with hooks and two wire rope clamps. No tools required—adjust the length of the suspension hardware and tighten the clamps to secure.

Lights without bulbs work with tubular fluorescent bulbs (sold separately).

Lights with an aluminum housing are lightweight and resist corrosion better than those with a steel housing.
