Marine Grade Outdoor Ceiling Lights

What is a Marine Grade Outdoor Ceiling Light?

A marine grade outdoor ceiling light (also called a coastal outdoor ceiling light) is a waterproof exterior light fitting that is resistant to corrosion from on-shore winds coming from large bodies of water such as the ocean. Typically, marine grade outdoor ceiling lights should be used by properties within 15km of the coast.

Marine Grade Outdoor Ceiling Lights Tips

• If you live near an ocean, then an outdoor ceiling light that is not marine grade can start to corrode within a year of installation.
• Normal stainless steel is not marine grade - it needs to be 316 stainless steel to be marine grade.
• If the light will be coming into direct contact with water then check its IP rating to ensure it is high enough. 
• It is critical to maintain your marine grade outdoor ceiling lights by regularly wiping them down.
