CABAC AL LINK 500MM2 ALK500 x 1/EACH

Description

High-Performance Aluminium Jointing for Heavy Conductors

Designed for 500mm² stranded sector and circular stranded aluminium conductors, this CABAC aluminium link delivers strong, low-resistance connections where it matters most. Manufactured from solid 99.6% pure electrical-grade aluminium rod, the forged construction eliminates internal imperfections that can lead to hot joints over time. The unique funnel entry allows quick, accurate cable insertion on site, reducing handling time and frustration when working with large conductors. Pre-filled jointing compound and capped barrels help ensure consistent electrical performance across demanding installations.

Proven Reliability with Global Standards Compliance

Built for long-term reliability in Australian conditions, this barrier-type aluminium link is fully annealed for optimal ductility and strength during crimping. The barrier design forces jointing compound back along the conductor strands, improving contact integrity and helping prevent moisture or oil migration in oil-filled cable applications. Chemically treated barrels reduce contact resistance, supporting dependable performance across a wide operating temperature range. Compliant with major international standards including AS/NZS 4325 Part 1, this link is suitable for regulated commercial and industrial projects where compliance is non-negotiable.

Trade-Ready Convenience That Saves Time on Site

Supplied ready to install, this 500mm² aluminium link is filled with jointing compound and designed for use with standard hexagonal crimping dies—no special tooling required. Clear specifications and consistent manufacturing make it easy to specify, order, and install without delays. Ideal for contractors managing tight programs, it supports efficient workflows, fewer call-backs, and confidence that the connection will last. Available as part of a wider trade-grade range, it helps keep procurement simple across multi-site and multi-stage projects.
