This LED T-Molding Housing is a translucent t-molding with a hollow core, allowing it to be illuminated by inserting LED strips or EL (Electroluminescent) tape into it. It is priced per foot, and sells as a single piece up to 250ft long. LED strips sold separately
- Width is 0.80" wide (20mm) +/- 0.01in (0.25mm)
- Hollow core is 0.55" wide and 0.09" high on the ends, 0.135" high in the middle.
- Fits standard non-waterproof 3/8" wide LED strips. Do *not* use waterproof strips, they are too thick to fit.

- Same product as Raw Thrills / Betson part #603-00718, as used on Jurassic Park and Aliens Armageddon
- LED strips sold separately
NOTE: When manufactured this molding is coiled backwards o it must be recoiled for a period of time to reverse the curve for easier installation. You may need to coil it in the other direction or lay it flat until you install it. That will help reverse the curve from manufacturing.

Featured positive reviews:
My order was shipped very fast with no problems. The product is as described. I like it but I wish the frosted look was more pronounced so there was less hot spotting of the leds. I also wish that the barbs that hold it in the channel were of normal T-Molding thickness, with some pounding I got it in a normal width channel but in doing so I shorted one 3 led segment on 2 led strips. I like this molding and will probably buy more and I hope the company can find a source for EL Paper because that would work and look better then led strips.
This Tmolding is good for modding your game with LEDs. It does not work well on tight corners. Really needs to be a gradual curve. The spline that holds the molding to the cabinet is thicker than the normal groove width. In some cases this can cause the wood to slip and the molding is hammered in. In some cases heating the molding with a heat gun can make is more mailable because it’s not very flexible like your standard tmolding.
So I used the LED T-molding for a jukebox restore... and I have to say the stuff is really good! I was concerned that I wouldn’t be able to pound the molding into the slot without damaging the LED light strip that was inside, but the plastic is very thick and protected the lights just fine. I couldn’t put the leds in after because there were several sharp corners. Anyway, excellent product!!!
