Mentor GmbH Press-In 4-Way Right Angle Rigid LED Light Pipe Clear 1278.1004

Mentor GmbH 1278.1004 press-in 4-way right angle rigid LED light pipe clear is engineered for high precision light guiding in electronic display applications. This rigid light pipe transmits light efficiently from SMD LEDs mounted on printed circuit boards to visible user interfaces, minimizing luminance loss and eliminating light bleed between adjacent display elements.

The light pipe is designed in a rectangular bargraph style with 4 individual light pipes arranged in one row and four columns, making it ideal for horizontal light guide applications on control panels and instrumentation displays. The rectangular heads are positioned parallel to the PCB front panel to ensure clear and direct illumination.

This component features a press-in mount type that allows quick and secure installation by pushing the light pipe terminals into the PCB. It has a length of 12.9mm and an outside diameter of 3.2mm, providing compact integration while maintaining optical efficiency. The product is UL94 certified for flame retardance, and its polycarbonate body is clear for optimal light transmission.

The operating ambient temperature for this light pipe range is between -40°C and +85°C, making it suitable for a wide variety of industrial, laboratory, and commercial electronics environments. It is manufactured in Germany, ensuring high manufacturing standards and product quality.

Horizontal light guides like this are commonly utilized in LED bargraph displays where multiple LED indicators need to be visually arranged in a clean and organized manner. The light diffusing screen prevents unwanted light radiation and preserves display clarity when using different LED colour combinations.

This rigid LED light pipe has 4 light pipes arranged in a single row and four columns. Rectangular shape with clear polycarbonate material and UL94 certification. Press-in mounting provides secure and tool-free installation on PCBs.

Compatible with SMD LEDs for efficient light transfer with high ESD protection. Operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C supports diverse electronic environments. Manufactured in Germany with premium quality standards.

Designed specifically for bargraph type horizontal LED displays.
