CABAC BI-METAL LINK 185AL TO 50CU BLK185/50 x 1/EACH

Description

Reliable Aluminium to Copper Connections for Heavy-Duty Installations

The CABAC BI-METAL LINK 185AL TO 50CU BLK185/50 provides a dependable transition between aluminium and copper conductors in electrical installations. Designed for connecting 185mm² aluminium cable to 50mm² copper cable, this bi-metal link ensures a secure and efficient joint where dissimilar metals meet.

Manufactured through friction welding, the link combines high-purity aluminium and copper to deliver a strong mechanical bond and consistent electrical performance. This construction helps maintain stable conductivity across the connection while supporting demanding electrical installations commonly found in switchboards, distribution systems, and industrial applications.

For electricians and contractors handling mixed conductor systems, this link provides a straightforward solution for maintaining reliable electrical continuity between aluminium and copper cables.

Built for Compliance with Australian Standards and Tooling

CABAC’s range of bi-metal crimp links are manufactured to Australian dimensions, allowing them to be crimped using standard Australian tooling already carried by most electricians. This reduces setup time on site and ensures the link integrates smoothly into standard installation workflows.

Each link is produced using 99.6% pure aluminium and 99.9% pure copper, friction welded for strength and durability. The barrel is pre-coated with jointing compound, helping improve contact integrity during installation.

Individually packed in plastic bags, the links remain clean and protected before use, which helps maintain quality during transport and storage on site or in the workshop.

Trade-Ready Components for Faster Installations

When working on tight project schedules, having reliable components that install quickly makes a real difference. The CABAC BLK185/50 bi-metal link is designed to keep jobs moving by offering a practical and consistent connection solution for aluminium-to-copper transitions.

With a full range of standard sizes available and the ability to machine custom links to order at short notice, the CABAC range supports both standard installations and specialised projects. Whether you’re wiring new infrastructure, upgrading switchboards, or completing maintenance work, this flexibility helps reduce downtime and sourcing delays.

For electrical contractors managing multiple projects, using trusted connection hardware helps ensure installations remain compliant, efficient, and built to last.
