LED Replacement for T12 “Metric” Warm White Fluorescent Lamps
This LED tube is designed to replace the unique T12 “Metric” fluorescent lamps found only in Canada. Measuring 1160 millimetres in length, these lamps have been a staple in many fixtures since the 1970s. If your system still uses a T12 “Metric” lamp, you’ll need to upgrade the ballast to a T8-compatible electronic ballast—but don’t worry, we can help you find the right one. Contact us to ensure you get the correct ballast for your setup.
The good news? This high-efficiency T8 LED tube is a perfect fit once the ballast is updated. It saves 40–70% on energy compared to traditional fluorescent lamps and lasts two to three times longer, making it a smart, cost-effective upgrade.
At 3500 Kelvin, this LED tube provides balanced, neutral white light—brighter and crisper than the original Warm White (3000K). While there is no direct 3000K LED replacement, this 3500K option offers excellent efficiency and improved light quality. Upgrade your outdated T12 “Metric” lighting today for better performance and long-lasting savings.
