Why Appleton?

Appleton engineers the V-51 Series with a malleable iron hood and globe adapter finished in a triple-coat process of zinc electroplate, chromate, and epoxy powder coat, backed by a shock-absorbing porcelain socket and neoprene sealing ring. Certified to CEC and NEC hazardous location classifications, this fixture is built for dependable, code-compliant performance in the demanding industrial and wet-location environments where standard luminaires fall short.

V-51 family note: the Appleton V-51 platform is built from several distinct sub-series (VGL, VPG1, VA, VGAT, VXHA, VWG, VC, VD, and others), each a different combination of mounting hood, globe material, and guard style for 60-300W hazardous-location lighting — not simple variants of one base fixture. This listing is one specific sub-series; see the other V-51 Series listings for the different hood/globe/guard combinations.
