Cable Lug for 35 mm Conductor – 8 mm Mounting Hole, Tin-Plated Copper
Pickup currently not available
Detailed Description
Overview
This cable lug is designed to terminate a 35 mm² (or equivalent 35 mm conductor / cable) and to connect securely to an 8 mm (M8) stud or bolt. It is manufactured from high-conductivity annealed copper and coated with tin plating to resist corrosion and ensure long, dependable electrical performance.
Key Features & Benefits
-
High conductivity copper to minimize electrical losses
-
Tin plating to reduce oxidation and improve contact reliability
-
Bell mouth / flared entry to ease insertion of stranded conductors and reduce strain (used in many 35 mm-8 mm lugs) Armoured Cable+2Superlec Direct+2
-
Inspection window / hole for visual confirmation of full conductor insertion before crimping (as seen in Superlec lugs) Superlec Direct
-
Seamless tube construction / robust barrel to withstand mechanical stress and maintain full contact surface
-
Standards compliance: Many 35 mm-8 mm lugs adhere to recognized specifications (e.g. CABAC’s CAL35-8 series) Cabac+1
-
Versatile usage: suitable for power distribution, switchgear, grounding, battery terminations, industrial / control systems

Installation / Usage Guidelines
-
Strip the insulation carefully without damaging the conductor strands.
-
Insert the bare conductor fully into the lug barrel, verifying via inspection hole where available.
-
Use a crimping die or tool suited for 35 mm lugs to create a solid, uniform crimp.
-
Secure the lug onto the 8 mm stud/bolt with proper washer and torque (avoid over-tightening).
-
Check mechanical stability and electrical continuity after installation.
-
In harsh or corrosive environments, periodic checks are recommended even though tin plating offers protection.
Notes & Considerations
-
Use the correct crimp die/tool matched to 35 mm lugs — mismatched tools lead to poor crimps and poor conductivity.
-
Avoid over-torquing the M8 stud—too much stress can deform the lug or conductor.
-
If connecting to dissimilar metals (e.g. aluminium busbar), consider using a bi-metal or transition lug to avoid galvanic corrosion.
