SATCO/NUVO 48 Inch 40W T12 Black Light Blue Fluorescent G13 Medium Bi-Pin Base (S6409)

Cast a deep violet glow and reveal fluorescent inks, dyes, minerals, and body-fluid traces with this 40-watt T12 blacklight blue fluorescent tube. The dark blue filter glass blocks most visible light while transmitting longwave UV-A, giving stage effects, poster displays, mineral cabinets, and inspection work the classic blacklight look without the visible spill of a fluorescent-white tube.

The 48-inch nominal length fits standard Medium Bi-Pin sockets in strip fixtures, wall-mount blacklight units, and specialty fluorescent housings. Universal operating position lets it mount vertically, horizontally, or overhead, and the 20,000-hour rated life supports repeated on-off cycling in event and inspection use.
