70 W metal halide lamp for G12 fixtures
The OSRAM SYLVANIA MC70 is a 70 W high-intensity discharge bulb with a T6 envelope and G12 base. It suits commercial or industrial fixtures that require this specific lamp type and wattage. Buyers needing a different base, lower wattage or LED technology should select another product.
Simple G12 base insertion for compatible sockets
Installation consists of aligning the bi-pin G12 base and pushing firmly until seated. The lamp runs hot and must cool before handling. Forcing the pins or using a mismatched socket causes poor contact and early failure.
