CABAC AL RED. LINK 500MM2 TO 400MM2 ALKR500/400 x 1/EACH

Description

Built for Performance on Heavy-Duty Aluminium Connections

When you’re transitioning between large aluminium conductors, this CABAC Aluminium Reducing Link 500mm² to 400mm² delivers a solid, low-resistance connection you can trust on demanding sites. Designed for stranded sector and circular stranded aluminium conductors, it provides consistent conductivity and mechanical strength where current loads are high and reliability matters. The fully annealed, high-purity aluminium construction supports clean crimps with standard Australian tooling, helping you get the job done right the first time without rework or callbacks.

Reliable, Compliant, and Site-Ready

This aluminium reducing link is a barrier type design, making it suitable for environments where protection against oil or water ingress is critical. That means fewer concerns on industrial, commercial, and infrastructure installs exposed to harsh conditions. It’s manufactured to meet major international and Australian standards, supporting compliance across a wide range of projects. The design is intended for use with standard hex dies—just avoid crimping too close to the centre barrier to maintain structural integrity and long-term performance.

Trade Convenience That Saves Time on the Job

For busy electricians and contractors, having the right reducing link on hand keeps projects moving. This CABAC reducing link suits common high-capacity aluminium transitions, reducing the need for workarounds or special orders. With clear sizing, standard tooling compatibility, and trade-grade construction, it helps minimise downtime, speed up installation, and keep crews productive—whether you’re working on switchboards, mains upgrades, or industrial terminations.
