CABAC BI-METAL LUG 150MM2-STUD10MM BL150-10 x 1/EACH

Description

High-Performance Connection for Aluminium Conductors

The CABAC BL150-10 Bi-Metal Lug is designed to deliver a reliable termination when connecting stranded sector or circular stranded aluminium conductors to copper busbars or equipment terminals. Manufactured using 99.6% pure aluminium for the sleeve and 99.9% pure copper for the palm, the lug provides excellent conductivity while maintaining mechanical strength on demanding installations. The aluminium barrel is pre-filled with jointing compound that breaks through oxide layers during crimping, improving electrical contact and reducing resistance. For best results, crimp from the palm end first to drive the compound into the conductor strands, ensuring a secure, low-resistance termination suitable for high-current applications.

With compatibility for standard Australian hexagonal crimp tooling, the BL150-10 integrates easily into existing installation workflows without requiring specialised equipment.

Durable Construction with Proven Electrical Reliability

Built for long-term performance, the CABAC bi-metal lug uses a friction-welded aluminium-to-copper joint, producing a strong and electrically sound bond that resists electrolysis. This method ensures dependable conductivity across the connection point while maintaining structural integrity under load. The aluminium barrel is chemically treated to minimise corrosion and reduce contact resistance, supporting consistent electrical performance even in challenging environments. The lug’s fully annealed construction provides ductility for secure crimping while maintaining tensile strength.

Compliance with recognised international standards—including AS/NZS 4325 Part 1, IEC, DIN/VDE, JIS, and BS—gives electricians and contractors confidence the product meets required electrical and mechanical performance criteria for professional installations.

Trade-Ready Design for Fast Installation on Site

Designed with working electricians in mind, the BL150-10 allows quick, straightforward installation using standard aluminium hexagonal dies commonly used across Australian tool systems. Tooling compatibility with CABAC, Utilux, and Burndy further simplifies procurement and ensures seamless integration with existing crimping equipment. With dependable stock availability and trade-grade quality, this bi-metal lug helps contractors complete terminations efficiently across switchboards, distribution systems, and industrial installations. Reliable connections mean fewer callbacks, reduced downtime, and smoother project completion.

Whether working on commercial fit-outs, infrastructure upgrades, or industrial maintenance, the CABAC BL150-10 provides the durability and installation confidence required on professional electrical jobs.
