Product Overview
The Ushio FTD JDR/M12V-20W/G/FL30/FG is a 20W 12V low-voltage halogen MR11 mini reflector lamp engineered for accent, architectural, display case, track, museum, gallery, and landscape lighting applications requiring a flood beam distribution in a compact MR11 format. Featuring a faceted reflector and a closed front glass (FG) for UV containment, this Japan-manufactured lamp operates at 2925K warm white with 100 CRI through a GZ4 miniature 2-pin base.

ADL Supply Expert Application & Replacement Guide
The Ushio FTD JDR/M12V-20W/G/FL30/FG (SKU UHB-1000622) is primarily used by lighting designers, electrical contractors, and facility maintenance teams for compact accent track heads, display showcase downlights, museum and gallery spotlights, jewelry case accents, and landscape fixtures where the MR11 format's smaller 35mm reflector diameter and GZ4 mini 2-pin base provide a more discreet fixture profile than the standard MR16 format, and where a flood distribution (rather than narrow spot) is the beam requirement. The GZ4 miniature 2-pin base uses 4mm pin spacing — distinct from the GX5.3 (5.3mm) used on standard MR16 halogen lamps; the GZ4 lamp will not seat in a GX5.3 socket and vice versa. The /FG suffix indicates a closed front glass cover that provides UV containment, making this lamp suitable for open-face track and accent applications where a separate UV-filtering fixture lens is not provided. This lamp requires a 12V low-voltage transformer rated for 20W halogen MR11 loads.
Before You Order

Verify Before Ordering
GZ4 Mini 2-Pin Socket — Not GX5.3 | 12V Transformer Required | Confirm Flood Beam for Application
This lamp uses a GZ4 mini 2-pin base (4mm pin spacing) — not interchangeable with GX5.3 MR16 sockets. Confirm your fixture socket is GZ4 before ordering. This lamp requires a 12V low-voltage transformer rated for 20W halogen MR11. This is a flood beam lamp — confirm flood distribution is appropriate for your application before ordering. Never handle the quartz envelope with bare skin.

Operation, Safety & Mounting Compliance
GZ4 vs GX5.3 Base, 12V Transformer & Closed Front Glass
The GZ4 mini 2-pin base is mechanically smaller than the GX5.3 used on standard MR16 lamps — the 4mm pin spacing vs 5.3mm means these bases are physically non-interchangeable. This lamp requires a 12V step-down transformer rated for 20W halogen MR11 loads; both magnetic (toroidal) and electronic low-voltage transformers are compatible provided the transformer's minimum load threshold is met. The closed front glass (FG) serves as an integral UV barrier, making this lamp suitable for use in open-face accent and display fixtures where no separate UV filter lens is installed. Never handle the quartz envelope or reflector body with bare skin — skin oils create localized hot spots that accelerate premature envelope failure.
