ADL Supply Expert Application & Replacement Guide
The Super 80 series uses a highly efficient 3-band fluorescent coating that gives more lumens per watt than standard fluorescent tubes, with a low mercury content and high lumen maintenance. This 16W lamp is used in 2-foot fixtures in offices, schools, retail spaces and industrial corridors.
If you are replacing older 'Standard Color' tubes (such as 33/640), the listing notes that Super 80 gives a noticeable improvement in brightness and visual comfort. The 4000K cool white color is a neutral light widely used in work environments.
T8 lamps have a 1-inch (26 mm) tube. T8 and T12 lamps share the same G13 base, so the base alone will not tell you which type your fixture uses; match the wattage, length and lamp code printed on the end of the lamp you are replacing.
