Free Cut COB LED Strip

Product Description

When a project calls for a sealed, dot-free strip that can be cut almost anywhere, this IP67 free-cut COB is what I specify. The 8mm board carries 528 LEDs per meter at 12W/m on 24V DC, and the whole emitting face is encapsulated in silicone to IP67, so it survives damp and dusty locations without showing the dotted hotspots you get from ordinary SMD tape.

What free-cut actually means here

On a normal strip you can only cut at fixed pads, often every 50 or 100mm. This board is built with a dense, segmented conductor layout so the cut points are much closer together — you can trim it to nearly the exact length a fixture needs without leaving dead sections. The silicone extrusion keeps the light uniform and protects the board, and at 12W/m it runs cool even inside sealed channels.

Key Features

• 528 LEDs/m, dot-free uniform output on an 8mm board
• Free-cut design for near-custom lengths with no dead zones
• 12W/m, 24V DC — cool running, easy to power
• CRI >90; 2700K / 3000K / 4500K / 6500K
• Supplied 5m per roll

Typical Applications

• Bathroom mirror, vanity, and wet-area lighting
• Kitchen and food-display lighting where moisture is present
• Outdoor signage and architectural trim under cover
• Marine and RV interior lighting

Installation notes

1. Cut only at the marked free-cut segments, then fit the matching end cap or connector to keep the seal.
2. For permanent wet locations, seal connector and cut ends with silicone to maintain IP67.
3. Use a 24V driver with 20% headroom; inject power every 5m.
4. The silicone face is best mounted in a profile — don't pierce the encapsulation with screws.

Frequently Asked Questions

How short can I cut it?

The free-cut segments are much closer than standard strips (typically around every 20–25mm), so you can match most fixture lengths. Always cut on the marked lines.

Is it fully submersible?

IP67 means it handles temporary immersion and direct water contact, but for permanent underwater use choose an IP68-rated product and sealed connectors.

Does cutting it void the warranty?

Cutting at the marked points is intended and doesn't void it, provided cut ends are properly sealed for the environment.

Can I order custom specifications or OEM branding?

Yes. As the manufacturer we support custom lengths, colour temperature, CRI, packaging and OEM labeling; send us your specification.

Can I request a sample before a bulk order?

Yes, samples are available so you can confirm the colour, build and output before a bulk order. Request a sample through our contact page.
