Powerful & Portable Lighting Solutions

Flashlights can vary dramatically depending upon the profession, hobby or task at hand. Mechanics, service technicians, plumbers and home inspectors, for example, may require the use of a flashlight daily, but this tool only requires a moderate lumen output and run time. Miners, search and recuse, first responders and avid hikers, on the other hand, need a hands-free lighting option with long run times and variable outputs.

Portwest® offers a versatile selection of industrial lighting and accessories that provide excellent performance for an extensive array of tasks.  Portwest® high quality industrial supplies are sold at wholesale prices to save your facility money – perfect for high consumption, resellers and high turn inventories.
