Description

Diode Dynamics SS5 CrossLink 7-Pod 44-Inch Stage Series LED Light Bar (Single)

Take your off-road lighting to the next level with the Diode Dynamics SS5 CrossLink 7-Pod 44-inch LED Light Bar. Built using seven Stage Series SS5 LED Pods connected with Diode Dynamics’ innovative CrossLink™ modular mounting system, this premium light bar delivers outstanding long-range illumination, rugged durability, and customizable styling in one versatile package.

Designed around patented Total Internal Reflection (TIR) optics, the SS5 CrossLink projects more usable light with less glare than traditional reflector-style LED light bars. Available in 6000K Cool White or 3000K Selective Yellow, this 44-inch light bar is offered in the Sport power level (40 watts per pod), providing an exceptional balance of performance, efficiency, and value.

The patent-pending CrossLink™ system allows you to connect up to eight SS5 LED Pods using precision CNC-machined aluminum links, making it easy to build or expand a custom straight or curved light bar configuration.

Proudly assembled in the USA and backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty, the SS5 CrossLink 7-Pod Light Bar is built for trucks, Jeeps, SUVs, overland rigs, UTVs, race vehicles, and anyone who demands premium lighting performance.
