Product Overview

The GE 12716 QH2MT3CL-HT-R is a high-wattage 2000W, 230V halogen infrared heat lamp designed for industrial heating applications. It features a double-ended T3 bulb with a metal sleeve and stranded lead wires at each end, making it suitable for plastic blow molding, thermoforming, and other industrial process heating equipment. The lamp delivers intense infrared radiation at 2450K color temperature with a C-8 filament, providing efficient heat transfer for material processing.

With a 5,000-hour rated life, this lamp offers long service life in demanding industrial environments. The horizontal burn position is required for proper operation. The red finish indicates infrared output optimized for heating rather than visible light.
