LED Slipfitter Mount Flood Lights

What is a Slipfitter Mount LED Flood Light?

A slipfitter mount LED flood light is an outdoor lighting fixture specifically engineered for pole-mounted installations. The defining characteristic is its slipfitter bracket system that slides directly onto pole tops or sides, creating a secure connection point. From our experience with thousands of installations, this mounting style offers superior adjustability compared to fixed brackets, making it the preferred choice for parking lots, streets, and athletic facilities where precise light placement is critical.

How Does a Slipfitter Mount LED Flood Light Differ from Other Types of Flood Lights?

The slipfitter mounting mechanism sets these fixtures apart from yoke, trunnion, or knuckle mount alternatives. While other mounts require surface attachment points, slipfitters slide directly over 2-3/8" to 4" diameter poles and lock in place. We typically recommend slipfitter mounts when you need vertical pole installation with 360-degree rotational adjustment. The bracket system allows for precise beam targeting without requiring additional hardware or complex mounting plates that other fixture types demand.

Where is a Slipfitter Mount Flood Light Commonly Used?

Based on our project experience, LED slipfitter mount flood lights excel in specific applications:

Parking Lots and Streets: Most customers choose 150-300 watt models for comprehensive coverage. The elevated mounting position maximizes light distribution while minimizing glare for drivers.

Recreational Areas: Athletic fields benefit from higher wattage options like our 400-600 watt fixtures with narrow 25-40 degree beam angles for precise field illumination without light spillage.

Commercial Exteriors: Security applications around warehouses and loading areas work best with 100-200 watt units featuring wide 60-120 degree beam spreads for maximum area coverage.

How Long Do Slipfitter Mount LED Flood Lights Typically Last?

Our LED slipfitter flood lights deliver exceptional longevity when properly installed. Operating 12 hours nightly year-round, expect over 10 years of maintenance-free performance. We back this with real-world data from installations dating back to 2007 that remain fully operational. The integrated LED technology eliminates lamp replacement costs while maintaining consistent light output throughout the fixture's lifespan.

Can You Dim a Slipfitter Mount LED Flood Light?

Absolutely. Most of our LED slipfitter models include 0-10V dimming capability as standard equipment. We often specify dimming controls for customers who want reduced lighting during off-peak hours or need compliance with dark-sky ordinances. The drivers automatically respond to voltage input changes, allowing smooth dimming from 100% down to 10% light output without flickering or color shift.

Do LED Slipfitter Flood Lights Come in Various Power Options?

Our slipfitter mount LED flood lights span from 38 watts to over 600 watts, covering virtually any commercial lighting requirement. Popular wattages include 100W, 150W, 200W, and 300W models for standard applications. Higher output 400W and 600W versions handle demanding applications like sports lighting or large area illumination. Each wattage option maintains the same mounting compatibility while delivering proportional lumen output.

How Do I Install a Slipfitter Mount LED Flood Light?

Installation follows a straightforward process that most electricians complete in under 30 minutes:

• Switch off power at the breaker and verify with a voltage tester.
• Choose an appropriate pole location with adequate clearance for the fixture size.
• Slide the slipfitter bracket over the pole top until it reaches the desired height.
• Tighten the bracket's locking mechanism to secure the fixture firmly.
• Rotate and tilt the fixture to aim the beam pattern at your target area.
• Make electrical connections following local codes and the fixture's wiring diagram.
• Restore power and verify proper operation across all light levels.
