Coast designed and built the PolySteel 400 LED Flashlight to work as hard as you and be just as tough. With a twist of a collar on the head, the versatile Pure Beam Focusing system allows you to change the beam from a wide flood that lights large areas close to you into a focused spotlight that is optimized for a long throw. In the spot mode, the light has Coast's bull's-eye beam that has a bright center circle that smoothly transitions to a dimmer halo around it—providing maximum illumination where you need it with plenty of spill to keep you aware of your surroundings.

The PolySteel body consists of a stainless steel core wrapped in a nylon-reinforced polycarbonate material. This combination of poly and steel produces a housing that is resistant to drops, impacts, and crushing. The poly exterior is highly slip resistant, and the deep-grooved handle design adds to its positive grip even in cold and wet conditions. Speaking of wet conditions, Coast O-ring sealed the light to an IPX8-rating—making it waterproof and submersible to a depth of 10' (3m). The PolySteel 400 runs on four AAA batteries and its three outputs are controlled using a simple push-button tailcap switch. With a length of just 5.75" and weighing under 7 ounces, the light is comfortable to hold and carry with an ease of use that will make it your everyday carry illumination tool. This item ships in clamshell packaging.
