Elevated edge lights (L-861) are used on runways, taxiways and thresholds/ends. Each fixture is constructed from a die cast aluminum body, powder coated in aviation yellow. L-861's Lights are available with either quartz halogen lamps or T10 lamps in both 30 and 45 watt power options. A glass Fresnel type lens is secured with a replaceable, heavy-duty O-ring and stainless steel clamp band.

All L-861 Elevated Lights includes a 1.5" (standard) or 2.0" frangible coupling to attach the fixture to a L-867 style base plate or mounting stake. Standard mounting heights are 14, 24 and 30 inches. The fixture head is secured to the riser using three bolts to allow for leveling if necessary. All L-861 Lights are FAA certified and made in the United States.
