The PFA-40A15FR-250V is a 40W incandescent A15 appliance bulb engineered for demanding appliance environments where safety and durability are essential. Designed to operate on 210V–250V input voltage, it is well suited for international and high-voltage domestic appliance applications including refrigerators, ovens, range hoods, and microwave ovens.

This incandescent bulb features a frosted glass finish that softens and diffuses light output, reducing glare inside appliance cavities. The A15 form factor measures 3.50 inches in length and 1.88 inches in diameter, making it a precise fit for appliance lamp sockets designed to accommodate this compact shape.

A defining feature of this incandescent lamp is its Tuff-Coat shatter resistant coating, a high-temperature PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) Teflon-based material applied directly to the glass envelope. This coating is engineered to contain glass fragments in the event of breakage, helping to prevent contamination of food, surfaces, or nearby components. The PFA coating combines extreme temperature resistance with high optical clarity, strong adhesion, and impact resilience, making it an appropriate choice for both refrigerator and oven environments.

The bulb uses a standard E26 medium screw base for straightforward installation in compatible appliance sockets. It carries an average rated life of 3500 hours and is dimmable, allowing for adjustable light output when used with a compatible dimmer. As an appliance lamp, this product is excluded from the U.S. Department of Energy General Service Incandescent Lamp (DOE GSIL) definition and regulation.
