Why Appleton?

Appleton V-51 Series luminaires combine malleable iron construction, a triple-coat corrosion-resistant finish and gasketed, enclosed globes to deliver dependable lighting in demanding hazardous and wet-location environments. Class I, Division 2 and Class II/III ratings, along with a shock-absorbing porcelain socket and unitized design, make these fixtures a reliable, code-compliant choice for industrial and hazardous-area lighting.

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.
