Traffic Light Size Selection: 100 mm to 400 mm

Use the nominal optical diameter as the starting point, then confirm the real GAOQIAO product, indication, housing, mounting and controller interface for the project.

How to use this size guide

The size below is a nominal optical or product dimension. Viewing distance, road speed, background contrast, local standards and the required indication must be checked before a final selection.

Each card links to a GAOQIAO product page with a representative image and product title. Confirm the latest drawing, voltage, aspect count, mounting and available customization with GAOQIAO before ordering.

100 mm: compact modules and small signals

The 100 mm class is used for compact signal heads, parking or access indications and replacement LED modules. The published 4 Inch (100MM) red LED module is a component reference; a complete signal head must be selected with its housing and controller interface.

125 mm: solar barricade and warning applications

The 125 mm class is represented by the published two-face solar flashing barricade light. It is intended for warning or work-zone visibility rather than a standard three-aspect intersection signal, so lens color, flash pattern and mounting must be confirmed.

200 mm: compact vehicle, warning and replacement heads

The 200 mm / 8 inch class includes compact vehicle and pedestrian signals, warning faces and replacement housings. A four-section replacement body is useful when the project needs to repair or reconfigure an existing signal installation.

300 mm: common intersection and arrow configurations

The 300 mm / 12 inch class includes ball, arrow, pedestrian, bicycle and countdown configurations. The published three-aspect arrow signal system is a practical reference for vehicle-turning applications, subject to the approved phase and controller schedule.

400 mm: long-viewing-distance signal heads

The 400 mm / 16 inch class is commonly considered where the viewing distance, road speed or intersection geometry needs a larger optical face. GAOQIAO publishes three-aspect arrow, pedestrian and bicycle configurations in this class.

Request a size and configuration review

Send the country and standard, approach speed, viewing distance, signal schedule, indication type, mounting drawing, voltage, controller model, quantity and destination. GAOQIAO can then confirm the appropriate size and available product configuration.
