Description

Diode LED LINAIRE® Flex 3D Bend — Flexible Architectural Linear Light, 24V

The Diode LED LINAIRE® Flex 3D Bend is a flexible architectural linear light engineered to bend in all directions — top and side — to follow curves, contours, and custom shapes no rigid fixture can match. With a 0.79" × 0.79" square profile, full diffusion for a completely dotless look, and IP65/IP67 water resistance, it delivers precision light quality in indoor and outdoor applications where flexibility, durability, and aesthetics are all non-negotiable.

Available in two output tiers — 2.6W/ft (24V-3D-LIN, up to 176 lm/ft, 32.8ft max run) and 4.57W/ft (24V-3D-LIN4, up to 434 lm/ft, 16.4ft max run) — across five CCT options from 2400K to 4000K. UV stabilized for outdoor use, 90+ CRI, free-cut termination (cut anywhere), and backed by a 5-Year Limited Warranty with UL Listed 2108 certification.

Output by CCT

  • 2400K: 151 lm/ft (2.6W/ft) | 379 lm/ft (4.57W/ft)
  • 2700K: 159 lm/ft (2.6W/ft) | 411 lm/ft (4.57W/ft)
  • 3000K: 165 lm/ft (2.6W/ft) | 421 lm/ft (4.57W/ft)
  • 3500K: 167 lm/ft (2.6W/ft) | 430 lm/ft (4.57W/ft)
  • 4000K: 176 lm/ft (2.6W/ft) | 434 lm/ft (4.57W/ft)

Best Applications

  • Curved cove and soffit lighting with custom radius bends
  • Organic architectural shapes, arches, and feature walls
  • Outdoor wet location lighting — facades, pergolas, covered patios
  • Under-cabinet and millwork profiles requiring top and side bends
  • Hospitality, retail, and commercial installations with complex geometries
  • Any application where a rigid linear fixture cannot follow the design intent

Key Features

  • 3D Flex — Bends Top & Side: Flexible in both directions for maximum installation versatility. Follows curves, arches, corners, and custom architectural shapes without cuts or joints.
  • Full Diffusion — Dotless Output: Built-in diffuser delivers uniform, dot-free illumination across the entire run — no visible LED chips, no hotspots, no accessories required.
  • IP65 (Field Cut) / IP67 (Factory Assembly): Water resistant and UV stabilized for indoor and outdoor wet location use. Factory-assembled ends are rated IP67; field-cut terminations are IP65.
  • Free Cut — Cut Anywhere: No fixed cut points — trim to any length needed for exact-fit installations. 96 in. white bare lead 18/2 AWG wire at both ends (Lead Wire A and B) on all models.
  • Two Output Tiers: 2.6W/ft (up to 176 lm/ft, 32.8ft max run) for ambient and accent applications; 4.57W/ft (up to 434 lm/ft, 16.4ft max run) for higher-output architectural and commercial use.
  • 90+ CRI, 36 LED Chips/ft: Chip Type 2835 delivers accurate color rendering across all five CCT options from 2400K to 4000K.
  • 0.79" × 0.79" Square Profile: Compact, consistent cross-section for clean installation in compatible LINAIRE Flex mounting channels and spine channels.
  • UL Listed 2108 — Outdoor / Wet Location: >50,000-hour rated life (TM-21 / LM-80). 5-Year Limited Warranty.

Power & Driver Sizing

All LINAIRE Flex 3D Bend models require a 24V DC Class 2 LED driver (sold separately). Formula: run length (ft) × W/ft ÷ 0.80 = minimum driver wattage.

  • 2.6W/ft at 32.8ft max run: 32.8 × 2.6 ÷ 0.80 = 107W min — recommended ADPT-DRJ-192-24 (192W)
  • 4.57W/ft at 16.4ft max run: 16.4 × 4.57 ÷ 0.80 = 94W min — recommended ADPT-DRJ-96-24 (96W)

Dimming is supported. Connect dimmer on the 24V DC output side of the driver — never on the AC line input.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "3D Bend" mean, and how flexible is the LINAIRE Flex 3D Bend?

The LINAIRE Flex 3D Bend is flexible in both directions — it bends along the top (vertical plane) and the side (horizontal plane) — giving it true 3D flexibility. This allows it to follow curves, arches, radius coves, and complex architectural shapes without cuts or mechanical joints. Standard flexible tape lights typically bend in only one plane; the 3D Bend can navigate compound curves and corners in a single continuous run.

What is the IP rating and can it be used outdoors?

The LINAIRE Flex 3D Bend is rated for outdoor and wet locations. Factory-assembled ends carry an IP67 rating (submersion resistant). Field-cut terminations are IP65 rated (water jet resistant). The fixture is UV stabilized for long-term outdoor exposure. It is UL Listed 2108 for outdoor and wet location installations.

What power supply do I need?

Both models require a 24V DC Class 2 LED driver (sold separately). Formula: run length (ft) × W/ft ÷ 0.80 = minimum driver wattage. For 2.6W/ft at full 32.8ft: 107W min — ADPT-DRJ-192-24 (192W) recommended. For 4.57W/ft at full 16.4ft: 94W min — ADPT-DRJ-96-24 (96W) recommended. Dimmer must be connected on the 24V DC output side of the driver.

Can I cut the LINAIRE Flex 3D Bend to a custom length?

Yes — the LINAIRE Flex 3D Bend features free-cut termination, meaning it can be cut at any point along the run (not limited to fixed cut intervals). Field-cut ends are IP65 rated. Factory-assembled ends maintain IP67. Both Lead Wire A (input) and Lead Wire B (tail) are 96 in. (18/2 AWG white bare lead) on all models, providing flexible wiring options at both ends.

What mounting accessories are compatible?

The LINAIRE Flex 3D Bend is compatible with Diode LED's LINAIRE Flex accessory ecosystem — all sold separately. The DI-LIN-3D-MTCH-39 (Mounting Channel, 39 in.) and DI-LIN-3D-SPINE-39 (Mounting Spine Channel, 39 in. White) provide secure installation surfaces. DI-LIN-3D-MTCL-2 (Mounting Clips) add additional retention points for curved runs. DI-LIN-3D-DEC (End Cap) provides a finished termination at exposed ends.
