Hella Marine 3562 Masthead Navigation Light, 2 NM, 12V, IP54, Vertical Surface Mount, Black Housing

Overview

The Hella Marine 003562005 is a 12V incandescent masthead navigation lamp with 2 nautical mile visibility and a black housing. It uses a 12V / 10W SV8.5 bulb (included) and carries an IP54 rating for protection against dust and splashing water. Housing and lens are UV and impact-resistant plastic, which helps it handle sun exposure and the bumps that happen around rigging and hardware.

The snap-lock housing opens without tools, which keeps bulb changes straightforward when you are troubleshooting at the dock or swapping a spare before a night run. The lens is white, and the unit is non-magnetic, which is helpful when mounted near sensitive instruments.

Approvals include IMO Col Reg 72, RINA, USCG, ABYC A-16, and Maritime NZ.

What’s included

• Masthead navigation lamp
• 12V / 10W SV8.5 incandescent bulb

Installation and wiring

This light mounts to a vertical surface. Plan the install so the cable can pass through the base plate cleanly, and make sure the rubber grommet seats fully to reduce water entry at the cable point. Use tinned marine wire and protected connections, especially when the run is exposed to spray and vibration.

It is intended for 12V DC systems. On 24V boats, a suitable DC-DC converter or a 24V-rated navigation light is typically required.

Use on board

This is a practical match for boats that are keeping an incandescent navigation light setup for simple spares and straightforward troubleshooting. It also fits well on refits where you are replacing a tired masthead light and want the same mounting style and service approach used across the Hella Marine 3562 series.

Maintenance and care

Rinse salt film off the lens and housing with fresh water, and avoid abrasive cleaners that can haze plastics over time. Periodically check the grommet and cable entry for a tight fit, and confirm the snap-lock closes fully after a bulb change.

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
