Clearance Marker Lamps

Clearance Marker Lamps for Commercial Trucks & Trailers

Clearance marker lamps are essential safety lights designed to improve vehicle visibility and meet DOT/FMCSA lighting requirements for trucks, trailers, buses, and utility vehicles. These lamps clearly define the outer edges of large vehicles, helping prevent accidents by signaling width, height, and length to other drivers on the road.

Available in LED and incandescent options, clearance marker lights come in multiple shapes and sizes—such as 3/4″ bullet LEDs, 2″ and 2.5″ round marker lamps, rectangular surface-mount designs, and PC-rated multi-function lights. They can be mounted with grommets, flanges, or screw bases, and are offered in amber and red lenses to meet front, side, and rear visibility requirements.

Many clearance marker lamps feature sealed, waterproof housings for durability in harsh weather conditions, vibration-resistant LED technology for long service life, and quick-connect terminals (PL-10, AMP, or bullet connectors) for easy installation. Popular brands include Truck-Lite, Grote, Peterson, Maxxima, Optronics, and Wesbar, ensuring compatibility with OEM and aftermarket applications.

Whether you’re outfitting a semi-truck, dry van trailer, flatbed, tanker, or utility fleet, clearance marker lights are a critical part of your vehicle’s lighting and safety system. Choosing high-quality DOT-approved clearance lamps ensures compliance, reliability, and maximum road visibility.
