Designer's Note

Why is shipping 8' power track so expensive?

When shipping just one box of 6 tracks through UPS, the cost can be over $210. This high cost is primarily due to the special handling required for a box that is 8'4" long. This is the UPS cost, we do not see any of this money.

For larger projects, it is more cost-effective and secure to ship the tracks on an 8' long pallet via truck. Trucking companies currently charge $479.00 per 8' pallet for this service. This method ensures that the track arrives on time and without any damage.

While the tracks themselves are reasonably priced, the shipping costs can significantly increase the overall expense, especially when only a few units are being ordered. For example, a case of 6 is $210 but if you order 7 track lengths you will have two boxes so the cost would be $420. UPS does not charge on weight, or the value of the product, they charge based on the size of the boxs.

It is advisable to contact us before you order 8' tracks to assess the most suitable and cost-effective shipping method. For larger projects, it usually makes sense to opt for truck shipping, whereas for smaller projects, it may not be cost-effective to use 8’ track at all and go with 6’ and 4’ lengths.

STOP: 8' Power track only ships by truck freight $479. Consider using shorter lengths. See our designer notes or send us an email for detailed information.

Our H style LED power track is the basic component for all track lighting installation and track lighting designs. Offered in three standard colors, Black, White and Satin, and in 2’, 4’, 6’ and 8’ lengths. Power track is an aluminum extruded body with Neutral, Hot and Ground “floating” copper buss making standard H style track the safest configuration in the industry. Each buss bar is an insulated solid 12-gauge copper rail rated at 2400watts per run (20amps). Power track comes with a visual polarity groove on the exterior of the extrusion. The track comes with 1 end cap. Compatible with most H style standard and LED track fixtures. Always check with your electrician to insure you meet all local, state, and federal building codes. Our track lighting system is UL approved for 120volts and 277volts. Ask us for UL approval report on file. See our extensive video library, drawings, photos and troubleshooting files for help with track lighting and make yourself an expert.

Important note: The NEC (National Electrical Code) notes that track runs are not to exceed 24’ (without a break in circuit), however since LED bulbs have taken over halogen, we have only seen this code enforced once in three years. The code book has not caught up with the LED technology. We strongly suggest you get with your qualified electrician to confirm the length of the track run to insure it meets local requirements before you install your system.
