Cable Lug for 120 mm² Conductor – 10 mm Mounting Hole, Tin-Plated Copper
Pickup currently not available
Detailed Description
Overview
This cable lug is designed to terminate a 120 mm² (or equivalent) copper conductor and to affix it securely to a 10 mm (M10) stud or bolt. It’s manufactured from high-conductivity annealed copper and is tin-plated to resist corrosion and maintain excellent electrical contact.
Key Features & Benefits
-
High Purity Copper Core: Offers low resistance and efficient current flow, built to industry standards. (CABAC’s CAL120-10 lug is made from 99.9%+ copper) Cabac
-
Tin Plating Finish: Helps guard against oxidation and ensures long-term reliable contact surfaces. Cabac
-
Bell-mouth Entry & Inspection Hole: Eases insertion of stranded conductors and allows visual confirmation of proper seating before crimping. (Superlec’s ET120C10 includes open bell mouth + inspection hole) Superlec Direct+1
-
Seamless Copper Tube Construction: Enhances mechanical strength, avoids weak seams, and ensures uniform crimping stress distribution. Superlec Direct
-
Compliant with Recognized Standards: The CABAC CAL120-10 lug meets standards such as AS4325, IEC, DIN/VDE, etc. Cabac
-
Versatile Use Cases: Suitable for power distribution panels, switchgear terminations, busbars, battery / grounding connections, industrial installations.

Installation / Usage Instructions
-
Strip cable insulation carefully, ensuring no strand damage.
-
Fully insert conductor into the lug barrel; verify via inspection hole (if present).
-
Use the proper crimping die/tool sized for 120 mm lugs to make a secure crimp.
-
Attach the lug to the M10 stud/bolt using appropriate washer and tightening torque (avoid over-tightening).
-
Check mechanical stability and continuity after installation.
-
In harsh or corrosive environments, inspect periodically to catch loosening or surface degradation.
Cautions & Considerations
-
Always use the correct crimping die or tool for 120 mm lugs — wrong tooling compromises the joint.
-
Do not exceed recommended torque on the M10 stud — too much torque can deform the lug or damage the conductor.
-
When connecting to dissimilar metals (e.g. copper lug on aluminum busbars), consider using bimetallic / transition lugs to avoid galvanic corrosion.
