Tronco - IP65 Grey Bollard with Diffuser 40.5 cm

The Tronco has a simple cylindrical profile finished in grey, giving it a clean contemporary appearance that works well with modern outdoor spaces. Its main body is made from die-cast aluminium, while the light-emitting section incorporates a Pyrex glass diffuser with aluminium elements inside.

At 40.5 cm high, the bollard stays relatively low to the ground and can be used repeatedly along a pathway or positioned individually beside entrances, patios and landscaped areas. The neutral grey finish coordinates easily with paving, stone, concrete and other common exterior materials.

This outdoor bollard uses one E27 bulb and is designed to provide diffuse light through its Pyrex glass section. The bulb is not included, so the light source can be chosen separately according to the required brightness and colour temperature.

Ideal Lux specifies a traditional bulb maximum of 42W for the single E27 lampholder. The manufacturer's current technical data also lists the fitting as non-dimmable. Its IP65 rating provides protection against dust ingress and water jets, making it suitable for exposed outdoor areas when correctly installed.

Ideal Lux lists an E27 globe-shaped 4W LED lamp as the recommended light source for this fitting. The bollard operates from a 220-240V AC mains supply and is a Class I fitting.
