PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The TOMAR 26" 970 Series LED Light Bar is engineered for professionals who require dependable emergency warning lighting in demanding environments. Designed with durability, performance, and real world visibility in mind, the 970 Series delivers powerful warning output for fire apparatus, ambulances, work trucks, towing vehicles, and industrial equipment.
Built with TOMAR’s precision engineering and industry proven components, this emergency LED light bar combines rugged construction with advanced optical performance. Its durable aluminum housing, hermetically sealed modules, and high efficiency optics ensure the light bar performs reliably in harsh environments including extreme vibration, dust, water exposure, and temperature swings.
Whether mounted on emergency vehicles or heavy duty work trucks, the 970 Series provides dependable visibility when safety and response time matter most.
Built for Rugged Environments
The 970 Series light bar features an exceptionally durable construction designed to withstand the toughest operating conditions. Each unit is built with a robust extruded aluminum housing, cast aluminum end caps, and impact resistant Lexan light modules. These materials combine to create a strong yet lightweight warning light bar capable of performing in high vibration and harsh field conditions.
Each module is hermetically sealed using TOMAR’s patented T-Seal™ linear vibration welding process. This advanced sealing method protects internal electronics from dust and moisture intrusion while eliminating traditional rubber seals that can degrade over time. The result is a long lasting lighting system engineered for years of dependable operation.
Putting the Light Where It Needs to Go
Visibility is critical for emergency response and roadside safety. The 970 Series uses TOMAR’s Clear Vision Optics™, a hybrid Total Internal Reflector (TIR) collimator system that efficiently captures and directs LED output down the roadway where it is most effective.
By focusing light where drivers and operators actually see it, the 970 Series increases long distance visibility and improves reaction time for approaching traffic. This enhanced optical performance helps create safer work zones and emergency scenes while ensuring your vehicle is clearly visible in day or night conditions.

Dual Color Lighting Overview
The dual color lighting option allows operators to switch between two independent LED color groups. Each color uses a dedicated set of LEDs within the module, enabling instant switching between colors through a vehicle switch or controller input.
This flexibility allows fleets to adapt their warning lighting for different operational needs while maintaining maximum brightness and visibility in each color mode.
