Top Bend LED Neon Strip, also known as top view or vertical bend LED neon strip, is a type of flexible LED neon strip designed to bend along the vertical axis. This design feature allows it to be shaped and contoured in ways that traditional neon lighting can’t, making it highly suitable for custom signage, architectural features, and decorative lighting.
Unlike traditional glass neon tubes, these LED neon strips are typically made from durable, flexible silicone materials. This construction allows for safe and easy installation in various indoor and outdoor settings. The top bend capability refers explicitly to the strip’s ability to bend upwards or downwards (like a “smile” or “frown”) as opposed to bending side to side.
These strips usually come in various colors, voltages, and levels of water resistance (indicated by IP ratings like IP67 or IP68). They can be cut to length and connected to a power supply, making them versatile for different projects. The LED technology also makes them more energy-efficient, longer-lasting, and less prone to breakage than traditional neon lighting.

Excellence in Manufacturing: Crafting Perfection in Every Product
Precise lengths of PCB sheets, typically 0.5m, are aligned under a durable stainless steel stencil. Here, lead-free solder paste is meticulously applied to create perfect soldering pads, a process adaptable for both automated large orders and manual small-scale production. A meticulous quality control process ensures optimal solder paste distribution at every solder point.
Each PCB sheet is then processed through an advanced SMT machine, which places components with exceptional precision. This step is critical for ensuring the flawless functionality of the LED neon strips, with each solder point receiving careful alignment and pressure. A thorough quality inspection follows, addressing any component misplacements.
The next stage solidifies the components onto the PCB, which is achieved through a controlled reflow soldering process. The PCBs pass through a multi-zoned reflow oven, ensuring the solder paste solidifies effectively. The LED functionality is rigorously inspected post-soldering, with any non-conforming PCBs undergoing rework or manual adjustments.
Subsequently, the 0.5m PCB sheets are skillfully joined to create continuous 5-meter LED neon strips. Each strip undergoes stringent quality checks, including a comprehensive 12-hour burn-in test, ensuring consistent lighting quality and longevity.
To enhance the aesthetic appeal of LED neon strips, high-quality silicone is mixed to produce various hues, such as milky white for light diffusion, white for light blocking, and transparent for marking cutting positions. The diffusion powder's proportion directly influences the color intensity and light transmission.
The LED strips are carefully placed on a payoff frame and meticulously adjusted on an alignment table, ensuring perfect organization and set up for the extrusion process.
This innovative step combines LED strips with silicone through a precise die and electronic control mechanism, ensuring seamless and uniform silicone wrapping around the LED strip.
The silicone-wrapped LED strips undergo vulcanization in a specialized oven, ensuring they are appropriately shaped and cured without damaging the LED beads.
Tailoring to diverse customer needs, various cable lengths and entry points are soldered onto the LED neon strips, with appropriate end caps installed for waterproofing.
Each LED neon light undergoes extensive testing, covering brightness, electrical performance, durability, waterproofing, temperature resistance, aesthetics, safety compliance, and specific performance benchmarks, ensuring each product meets the highest quality standards.
As part of our OEM/ODM services, we offer customized laser engraving on the silicone body of the LED neon strips, including brand logos and product information.
Finally, the LED neon strips are carefully rolled, packaged in anti-static bags or custom packaging as per client requirements, and securely placed in cartons for shipping.

Elevate Your LED: Versatile End Cap Options for Neon Strips
This is our standard end cap made from silicone. Typically, the LED neon flex with this end cap is IP67. Usually, you can slide or fit it onto the end of the strips after applying glue inside the caps.
Being IP67, it is made of the same material as the strip itself that seamlessly integrates with the strip. It provides a more finished and cohesive look as it’s designed to be part and the same size as the strip.
It is usually made of plastic or a similar sturdy material. This cap is typically IP67. It often comes with a mechanism that snaps onto the strip, making it user-friendly for quick installations.
Effortless Integration: Cable Entries for Enhanced Neon Flexibility
The cable enters from the front or the same surface where the LED lights are visible. This type is suitable when you mount the strip against a surface and want the cables to be less noticeable from the front.
The cable enters from the side of the strip. This is useful for installations where the strip is mounted along an edge or in a corner, allowing the cable to run along the side without obstructing the light or being too visible.
The cable enters from the back or bottom of the strip. Ideal for overhead installations or when the strip is mounted on a surface and you want the cable to be hidden entirely from the front and sides.
