CABAC BI-METAL LUG 120MM2-LPB BL120LPB x 1/EACH

Description

Built for Reliable Terminations on CCT Conductors

The CABAC Bi-Metal Lug 120mm² Long Palm Long Barrel (BL120LPB) is designed specifically for Covered Conductor Thick (CCT) aluminium conductors, delivering a strong and dependable termination for overhead and distribution applications. The extended barrel length allows for an additional crimping position, providing improved mechanical strength where longer palms are required.

For electricians and contractors working with aluminium conductors, the bi-metal construction provides the best of both materials — an aluminium sleeve for conductor compatibility and a copper palm for secure connection to equipment and busbars. The palm is supplied unfinished so it can be cropped and drilled to suit site requirements, making it ideal for installations where flexibility and custom hole placement are needed.

Strong Bi-Metal Construction for Long-Term Performance

Manufactured using 99.6% pure aluminium and 99.9% pure copper, this lug is joined through a friction welding process that creates a highly durable electrical bond. This method produces a joint that is electrically sound and resistant to electrolysis, helping maintain conductivity and reliability over time.

To further improve performance in demanding environments, the aluminium barrel is chemically treated to reduce contact resistance and corrosion. Each lug is also pre-filled with jointing compound, which helps break oxide layers on aluminium conductors during crimping to ensure a cleaner and more effective electrical connection.

The fully annealed metal construction offers excellent ductility while maintaining the strength required for heavy-duty electrical installations, ensuring dependable performance across a wide operating temperature range.

Trade-Ready Design Compatible with Australian Tooling

Designed to Australian dimensions, the CABAC BL120LPB lug can be installed using standard Australian crimping tooling, helping electricians complete terminations quickly without specialised equipment. This compatibility is essential on busy sites where speed and consistency matter.

The adjustable palm length allows contractors to customise the lug to suit different mounting configurations and equipment layouts. Whether used in overhead distribution work or infrastructure projects using CCT conductors, this lug helps streamline installation while maintaining compliance with international standards including AS/NZS4325 Part 1, IEC, DIN/VDE, JIS, and BS.

For trade professionals managing tight project timelines, choosing high-quality lugs like the CABAC BL120LPB helps reduce installation issues, minimise call-backs, and maintain reliable electrical performance on site.
