CABAC BI-METAL LINK 120AL TO 16CU BLK120/16 x 1/EACH

Description

Reliable Aluminium-to-Copper Cable Connections for Trade Installations

The CABAC BLK120/16 Bi-Metal Link is designed to create a secure connection between aluminium and copper conductors on electrical installations where mixed-metal terminations are required. Built specifically for connecting 120mm² aluminium cable to 16mm² copper cable, this bi-metal link provides a dependable transition between conductor types commonly found in distribution systems, mains connections, and switchboard installations.

The friction-welded aluminium and copper construction ensures excellent electrical conductivity while maintaining mechanical strength during crimping and service life. With jointing compound pre-applied inside the barrel, installers can achieve consistent electrical contact and minimise resistance at the connection point—helping maintain reliable circuit performance on both commercial and industrial jobs.

Built for Compliance with Australian Standards and Tooling

CABAC bi-metal links are manufactured to Australian dimensional standards, allowing electricians to crimp them using standard Australian tooling without compatibility issues. This ensures smoother installations and eliminates the guesswork when working on projects that require compliant materials and consistent connections.

Each link is produced using high-purity aluminium (99.6%) and copper (99.9%), friction welded for long-term durability and stable conductivity. The barrels are coated with jointing compound to help reduce oxidation between dissimilar metals, improving long-term reliability in demanding electrical environments.

For contractors working on switchboards, distribution upgrades, or service connections, using compliant components like CABAC links helps ensure installations meet regulatory expectations while maintaining safe, high-quality workmanship.

Trade-Ready Packaging for Efficient Site Work

Designed with electricians in mind, CABAC bi-metal crimp links are individually packed in protective plastic bags, keeping the connectors clean, protected, and ready for immediate use on site. This simple packaging approach helps prevent contamination or damage during transport and storage in toolkits, vans, or site containers.

With a full range of sizes available across the CABAC link range—and the ability to machine custom links when required—contractors can source the right connection for both standard installations and specialised electrical projects.

For busy electricians managing tight schedules, reliable components that install easily with familiar tooling help reduce downtime and keep projects moving from rough-in to final commissioning.
