Waterproof Neon Flex: IP67 Construction and Specification
2026年7月17日
How waterproof neon flex achieves IP67, what to verify on orders, and field rules for cuts, caps, and connectors on outdoor lines.
Waterproof Neon Flex
Quick Answer: Waterproof neon flex typically uses full silicone extrusion around the LED assembly to achieve IP67 — resisting temporary immersion and weather exposure. Every cut, connector, and end cap must restore the same protection level in the field.
How IP67 Neon Flex Is Built
- LED strip inserted into silicone profile - Continuous extrusion or molded housing - Factory-sealed end caps on standard reels - Optional potting at feed points for harsh sites
What IP67 Does Not Mean
IP67 addresses defined water tests — not unlimited depth or lifetime without maintenance. Document test method on the RFQ.
Field Termination Rules
1. Cut only at marked positions 2. Use manufacturer-approved end caps 3. Fill cavities with compatible sealant where specified 4. Strain-relief cables into junction boxes 5. Photograph seals for O&M records
Q: Can IP67 neon flex be buried? A: Only if SKU is rated and detailed for burial — confirm with factory; many facade lines are IP67 spray/immersion, not permanent burial.
Q: Does waterproofing reduce brightness? A: Housing diffusion may reduce peak lumens vs bare strip — request output per IP SKU.
Conclusion
Specify waterproof neon flex as a system including termination hardware and inspection plan. Mihoray validates outdoor SKUs with documented IP testing tied to BOM revision.
