Hella Marine APELO Surface Mount Spacer - Black for Flexible Underwater Light Installation

APELO Spacer Surface Mount - Black

The mounting position for the ideal width between lights is often not the same place as the optimum position for cabling. The APELO surface mount spacer changes that and increases flexibility when mounting your APELO underwater lights. Rather than drilling holes into the transom, the cable can be routed through the side to an above-water position or somewhere that internal access is far more favorable. The spacer features a 5-degree surface to allow for fine-tuning the lighting direction: useful if you prefer the light to be directed out toward the side, or to avoid an obstruction, such as an outboard motor or trim tab, from blocking some of the light. This angle can also be used to offset a transom angle.

Features:

• Surface mount for side cable entry


• Route cable to where internal access is better


• Offset mounting angle by 5 in any direction


• Compensate for Transom angle

The Hella Marine APELO Surface Mount Spacer (Part Number: 280801001) provides enhanced flexibility for installing your APELO underwater lights. Designed to improve mounting options, this black spacer allows you to position your lights optimally without the need for drilling into the transom. Its surface mount design facilitates routing cables through the side, enabling easier access and better cable management, especially when internal access is limited. This feature is particularly advantageous for marine applications where clean, unobtrusive installations are essential, and it helps reduce installation time and potential damage to the vessel structure.
The spacer includes a 5-degree surface angle that allows fine-tuning the lighting direction. Whether you want to aim the lights outward to improve visibility or to avoid obstructions such as outboard motors or trim tabs, this adjustable angle offers precise control. Additionally, the offset capability helps you compensate for transom angles, ensuring your lights are optimally aligned regardless of vessel design. The robust black finish ensures durability and resistance to marine environments, maintaining a sleek appearance and reliable performance over time.
This mounting spacer is suitable for a variety of boat types and provides a versatile solution for custom underwater lighting setups. Its straightforward design simplifies installation and adjustment, making it an ideal choice for boat owners seeking to enhance their vessel’s lighting system while maintaining a clean, professional appearance. Whether upgrading existing lights or installing new ones, the Hella Marine APELO Surface Mount Spacer is an essential component for achieving optimal lighting angles and cable routing flexibility in marine environments.

Features:

• Surface mount for side cable entry

• Route cable to where internal access is better

• Offset mounting angle by 5 degrees in any direction

• Compensate for transom angle
