Duro-Test Product 1
Reflector Incandescent Lighting

Duro-Test's incandescents are made in sizes from 5 watts to 1500 watts and are engineered to outlast conventional bulbs several times over. They range from general service to vibration types, traffic, street, spots, floods, all-weather, and high-bay!

If you're a restaurant owner or manager, innkeeper, theater manager, storekeeper, hotel or motel operator, country club or resort owner ... you'll find a Duro-Test bulb just for you.

OSHA and USDA-approved Armorized Hercules lamps feature a tough, exclusive fiber glass winding that protects the bulb from breakage due to moisture, thermal shock, physical shock, weld spatter, rain and sleet, chemical vapors and impact of insects.

Duro-Test's incandescents are made in sizes from 5 watts to 1500 watts and are engineered to outlast conventional bulbs several times over. They range from general service to vibration types, traffic, street, spots, floods, all-weather, high-bay, sign, insect-repellent, energy-saving, and a host of other user-oriented models. (We build more than 50 different 100-watt bulbs alone.)

Duro-Test general-service incandescent bulbs utilize four filament supports, and our Superlife line utilizes seven, as compared to one (or even none) for the conventional household bulb.

"A" LAMPS
Duro-Test bulbs are designed and engineered for durability, strength and long burning life. They feature rugged, multi-support Duro-Flex tungsten filaments that easily withstand the shock and vibration of industrial applications. Life-rated up to 8,500 user hours, the Duro-Test bulb will outlast ordinary bulbs many times over. You save substantially on labor and replacement costs and you greatly reduce the number of trips up the ladder to change burned-out bulbs. All Duro-Test incandescents are made with shiny brass bases, which unlike aluminum, won't corrode in the socket, even after thousands of hours of burning. In wattages ranging from 15 to 200, our "A" line includes 3,500-hour general service lamps, 8,000-hour sign lamps in a wide variety of colors, corridor lamps, attractive decorative models, and much more.

"AT" LAMPS
The exclusive "AT" bulb design is the hallmark of Duro-Test quality. But it's a lot more than just an unusual shape. The unique cooling crown adds 12% more surface area to the bulb, making the surface temperature as much as 50°F cooler than that of conventional bulbs. It also helps to reduce bulb-blackening density and makes bulb-changing easier.

"ATM-9" SUPERLIFE
Until now, incandescent light bulbs could be made to deliver either more life or more light. Never both. Until now, that is. Because now there is the ATM-9 Superlife line. More life and more light. Life-rated at 7,000 user hours, the Superlife line delivers twice the life of our own premium-life bulb, almost three times the life of most competitors' "long-life" bulbs, and seven to nine times the life of conventional types. Just screw them in, and forget about them; they're backed by a two-year warranty. In 40, 60, 75 and 100 watts. Made with krypton fill-gas.

"ATC" WATT-SAVER
These energy-saving bulbs start saving you money the minute you screw them into the socket. In 34, 54, 67, 90, 135 and 185 watts, they give light comparable to 40, 60, 75, 100, 150 and 200-watt long-life bulbs. Yet they cost 7 1/2% -15% less to light and conserve 7 1/2% - l 5% in electrical energy. In Clear, Frost and Brite-White finish. Made with krypton fill-gas.

"BR-30" REFLECTORS (Formerly R-30)

Tough and versatile, these extra-dependable, Rough Service/Vibration BR-30s are perfect for small signs, short-throw display lighting, inspection lighting, and close-range accent lighting ... any close-quarter or close-up application that needs reliable reflector concentration. Available in a variety of colors including Candlelight, Surprise Pink, Amber, Straw, Red, Blue, Super White and Neo-White. Neo-White is especially compatible with window light and our sunlight-simulating Vita-Lite fluorescent. Super White is a fine plant light.

"BR-40" REFLECTORS (Formerly R-40)
Our Rough Service/Vibration BR-40 supplies long-lived brightness in nearly every area calling for concentrated light! Comes in many wattages, spot or flood. Colors: Clear, Super White (Plant-Lite), Daylite, Candlelight, Surprise Pink and Neo-White.

"BRL" REFLECTORS
BRL Reflectors are designed to give you more lighting punch for your money. Ideal for hi-hat fixtures, the BRLs longer overall length brings the lamp face to the front of the fixture. No light is lost inside the fixture. The BRL puts the light where you want it most. You get extra brightness -- up to 50% more light than comparable wattage reflector lamps! The silvered reflector feature gives you more of the light you pay for than ordinary aluminum reflectors. Duro-Test BRL Reflectors are made with sturdy, multi-support C-11 filaments for durability and strength in industrial applications.

"BRO" AND "PAR" REFLECTORS

Meet Duro-Test's one-piece BRO-38 spots and floods. They're bright, versatile and rugged. You install them, forget about them, and never worry about maintenance. Because everything about them is designed for long life. The bulb itself is made of weather-resistant Durex glass. It's hardy enough to withstand rain, sleet and snow; but at one-third the weight of conventional two-piece PARS, it's light enough to eliminate strain on the fixture. The corrosion-proof brass base, unlike aluminum, won't "freeze" or distort in the socket. Inside, the sturdy Rough Service/Vibration filament combines with a mirror-bright reflector to punch out brilliant, trouble-free light for 5,000 user hours. That's two and a half times longer than standard reflector bulbs! Duro-Test BROs are available in many wattages and colors, including several Watt-Saver models.

"ER" Watt-SavER REFLECTORS
Duro-Test's new Watt-SavER-30Ks and 40Ks replace higher wattage reflector floods and save up to 57% in energy costs -- while providing more light than the bulbs they replace. Our 64-watt ER-30, for example, can do the job of a 150-watt flood. Life-rated at a maintenance-saving 9,000 user hours, Watt-SavER reflectors outlast conventional spots and floods 4 1/2 to 1, further reducing your overall lighting bills. With its beam focus-point two inches in front of the bulb face (3 1/2" for the ER-40), Watt-SavER reflectors deliver maximum light from recessed fixtures -- virtually no light remains trapped inside the fixture. This unique characteristic, along with advanced krypton gas and filament technology, sets Watt-SavERs apart from ordinary reflectors. In 42, 64 and 86-watt ER-30 and 86 and 128-watt ER-40, there's a Watt-SavER reflector to fit your every need. Assorted colors too! All Watt-SavERs are backed by Duro-Test's two-year Free Replacement Warranty.

"PS" LAMPS

Big light for big lighting jobs. In 200, 300 and 500 watts, our dependable, long-lasting 'PS" general service bulbs cut down on dangerous burn-outs, while saving money in terms of replacement and maintenance costs. They're life-rated up to 3,500 user hours with a one-year Free-Replacement Warranty.

"R-20" REFLECTORS
Recommended for small signs, displays and display cases, doorways, machine illumination, time- and-temperature signs ... for any small area that demands long-lasting, concentrated light! Tough construction and sturdy filaments make these R-20s nearly impervious to the elements and to continual vibration! Many feature krypton fill-gas, which promotes brighter burning than conventional argon gas. In addition, its Duro-Flex tungsten filament is more uniform and resilient, and up to 10 times stronger than ordinary filaments. Colors include Neo-White, Surprise Pink and Super White.

"S" SIGN LAMPS
Duro-Test's extensive line of sign lamps includes tiny six-watt S-6s for indicator lighting; popular 11-watt S-14s in clear, frost and ceramic colors; and versatile "A"-shape bulbs in a wide variety of wattages, sizes and colors for almost any indoor or outdoor sign lighting application. All Duro-Test sign lamps feature rugged, multi-support filaments and most are life-rated up to 8,500 hours. Many of these lamps are ideal for decorative lighting as well as sign lighting. The ceramic colors are bright, durable and weatherproof.

"T" LAMPS
Showcases, Exit Signs, Appliances or Indicators -- whatever your lighting need, Duro-Test has a lamp to fill it. In wattages from 13 to 40, our "T" lamps provide dependable, maintenance-free light for up to 6,500 user hours. If a lamp burns out within one year from date of purchase, we replace it free of charge.

3-WAY LAMPS
Most ordinary 3-Way bulbs usually lose at least one filament long before the end of their short life. In Duro-Test's premium-quality 3-Way bulbs, the rugged Duro-Flex tungsten filaments defy rough handling, shock and vibration, and power fluctuations. You can count on bright, dependable light -- at each setting -- throughout the long life of the lamp. There's a Duro-Test 3-Way bulb for just about every need: 30/70/100 for economy ... 50/100/150 and 50/200/250 for all-around use ... and 100/200/300 for full-room brilliance.

ARMORIZED EXTRA DUTY

Duro-Test's Armorized Extra Duty lamps combine the best features of our Armorized Hercules and Extra Duty bulbs: the tough OSHA-approved fiber glass winding and the super-tough filament construction that shrugs off shock and vibration. It's the most rugged industrial bulb you can buy. Like the Armorized Hercules, the Armorized Extra Duty has been accepted by the United States Department of Agriculture for use in federally-inspected meat and poultry plants. Available in 50, 75, 100, 150 and 200 watts.

ARMORIZED HERCULES

OSHA and USDA-approved Armorized Hercules lamps feature a tough, exclusive fiber glass winding that protects the bulb from breakage due to moisture, thermal shock, physical shock, weld spatter, rain and sleet, chemical vapors and impact of insects. Unlike ordinary bulbs which explode in a hail of flying glass, the Armorized Hercules cracks like safety glass; it stays in one piece. You avoid personal injury, contamination of costly materials, expensive down-time on production lines, and loss of valuable man-hours. The Armorized Hercules also features a multi-support, long-life filament that delivers up to 3,500 hours of maintenance-free light. Available in 60, 100, 150, 200 and 300 watts.

CODE BEACON AND OBSTRUCTION LAMPS
Wherever there are tall air traffic hazards, and lives depend on light, you need the best Code Beacon lamps money can buy. And the best are built by Duro-Test. Our Code Beacons feature heavier filaments that are designed to withstand severe intermittent operation. Mogul prefocus base with welded eyelet assures positive contact and automatically positions filament for maximum visibility. Made with regular glass or all-weather Durex hard glass. The 620-watt Code Beacons are life-rated up to 5,000 user hours, 700-watt models up to 8,500 hours.

Duro-Test Obstruction lamps, featuring super strong stem and filament construction, resist wind-vibration and shock that would destroy ordinary lamps. Medium brass base can't corrode, can't "freeze" in socket, even after 8,000 hours of exposure to wind, rain or snow.

CORRIDOR DAY & NITE LAMPS

The "Around-the-Clock" Lamp
These lamps are built to last! Up to nine times longer than conventional bulbs and over three times longer than extended-service bulbs! They are engineered to deliver 9,000 user hours of dependable light. That's more than a full year of continuous burning. Corridor lamps are available in wattages from 40 to 200 in a variety of sizes and shapes to fit standard medium-based sockets in all types of commercial and industrial applications. Ideal for use in high, hazardous, and hard-to-reach places ... and wherever steady, around-the-clock lighting is vitally important, such as stairwells, corridors, store rooms and basements. Also fine for night lights and security lights anywhere.

DECORATIVE LAMPS

If you think Duro-Test decorative bulbs look attractive ... add glamour ... create drama and excitement, you're exactly right. But they do so much more. Duro-Test bulbs are built stronger to burn longer -- up to 9,000 user hours or about 10 times longer than ordinary bulbs. They save greatly on maintenance and replacement costs, as well as on the number of bulb-changing operations. And they're covered by our two-year Free-Replacement Warranty. Duro-Test decorative bulbs are available in a wide assortment of wattages, sizes, shapes and colors.
