Features to know about

Better Rear Visibility at Night: Low-Profile Red Identification Light Bar

This Peterson Thin-Line ID bar gives you the visibility you need when hauling a wide trailer. The 15-1/2" long by 1-3/16" tall light bar uses three replaceable Peterson 136R incandescent lights under a red lens to mark the width of trailers over 80". It’s DOT compliant, so you stay within lighting regulations while keeping your setup easy to see in low light.

Fits Where Space Is Tight: Thin-Line Surface-Mount Design

When space is limited along the rear of a trailer, this low-profile Thin-Line design fits cleanly without sticking out. At only 1-3/8" thick, it mounts flat against the surface using the built-in flange and existing holes. The surface-mount style needs just a small opening for wiring and bolts down securely using your own hardware.

Built to Last: Durable Black Steel Base

The steel base with a black enamel finish adds strength and corrosion resistance for long-term use. It holds up well against road grime and weather exposure while keeping the lights aligned and protected. The solid construction makes it a sturdy choice for trailers that see regular use.

Simplified Wiring: Single-Wire Ground System

This light bar keeps wiring straightforward with its single-wire design that grounds through the mounting hardware. It’s compatible with standard 12V DC systems and uses 194/193 style bulbs, so maintenance and setup stay simple.

Exact Replacement Fit: Direct Match for Grote #49062

If you’re replacing an older bar, this unit works as an exact fit for Grote #49062. You can swap it in easily without changing wiring or drilling new holes, getting you back on the road quickly with dependable lighting that meets DOT standards.

Video Transcript for Comprehensive Review: Peterson Thin-Line Identification Light Bar

Today were going to take a look at Petersons Thin Line Red Identification Light Bar, part number 136-3R. This light is designed to mount on the surface of your truck or trailer using mounting holes that are 6 and 15/16th inches on center. The light is designed to indicate trailers or trucks that are over 80 inches wide. It is a single wire design meaning it will ground through the hardware used to attach the light bar, and you will get you power via the single wire lead. Next were going to hook the light bar up to a power supply so you can see how it looks.

Well clip our ground to the mounting bracket, and well connect our power wire lead to our supply. Next well turn off the overhead lights so you see how bright the light is. And thats it for Petersons Thin Line Red Identification Light Bar, part number 136-3R.

Still working after a year. I have a thing about keeping the trailer lights operational and this was another great part at a great price from etrailer. Thanks!!

The items I ordered were to replace damaged lights I had on my trailer. The two items I ordered were exact matches and made the replacement of the broken ones quite easy, 10 minutes max.
Thanks !!

This product is excellent. It fits exactly where the previous bar was installed. All the holes match up and the single wire hook up took about 5 minutes. Parts selection at etrailer is fantastic and the service is excellent.

These are just what I wanted for my customers trailer. He is very pleased with the products and can't wait for me to get it all together so he can start using the trailer. What was on there before was total junk. Half worked and half didn't.
Great company!

Is it possible to replace the Lens for this unit? I broke one of mine, and need to replace it, but not sure what the part would be if they are available separate.

The closest thing we have available is the A68RB lens from Optronics. It is for a light that is interchangeable with the Peterson M136R and that should be what is on your light bar. Double check with your light bar and see if you can find any markings that indidcate the model of each light. But the A68RB lens should fit.

  • Mounting Hole Spacing For Peterson Thin-Line Identification Light Bar 136-3R
    Hello Brian, thanks for reaching out. I went out to our warehouse and measured the Peterson Thin-Line Identification Light Bar # 136-3R. I can confirm the mounting holes are indeed 6-15/16" apart.

  • Requirements For Position Of Center 3 Light Bar
    A 3 light bar like the Peterson Thin-Line Red Identification Light Bar # 136-3R does have height requirements of between 15 and 72 inches from the ground. If you are using them as rear clearance lights for the top of your trailer, then there is only the requirement of being the same height above the ground as other clearance lights and as high as possible on the trailer. I've attached an article on trailer lighting requirements to help.

  • Availability of Replacement Red Lenses for Light Bar On Utility Trailer
    The closest individual light we have to the measurement you provided is the Optronics Oblong Trailer Clearance Light # MC68RB. This light measures 3-1/2 inches x 1-1/8 inches. However, the lens for this light is not reflective. The replacement lens for this light is part # A68RB. If you are looking to replace the entire light bar, you may like the Peterson Thin-Line Red Identification Light Bar # 136-3R. The lights on this light bar are comparable to the Optronics # MC68RB lights. These...

  • Submersible Light Bar Recommendation for Trailer Lighting
    I have a solution for you, but the Peterson Lightbar part # 136-3R that you referenced is not submersible. Instead check out the # MCL93RB which is a very similar light bar that is submersible.
