CABAC BI-METAL STALK 95MM2 CABLE BS95/12 x 1/EACH

Description

Reliable Bi-Metal Connection for Aluminium to Copper Terminations

The CABAC Bi-Metal Stalk Lug BS95/12 is designed for secure termination of 95mm² stranded aluminium cables to copper connection points. Manufactured using high-purity aluminium and copper, the lug is friction welded for maximum electrical performance and mechanical strength, ensuring a reliable transition between dissimilar metals.

The aluminium barrel is pre-coated with jointing compound, helping minimise oxidation and improving conductivity when crimped. This results in a strong, low-resistance connection that performs consistently across demanding electrical installations. Compatible with standard Australian crimping tools, it allows electricians to complete terminations quickly without specialised equipment.

Built for Long-Term Reliability and Standards Compliance

CABAC bi-metal lugs are manufactured from 99.6% pure aluminium sleeves and 99.95% pure copper palms, delivering excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance where aluminium cables meet copper busbars or terminals.

The friction-welded joint meets recognised international manufacturing standards, providing dependable performance under load. With a fully annealed metal structure and tensile strength of 110 MPa, the lug maintains mechanical integrity even in high-demand environments.

Rated for operating temperatures from –40°C to +125°C, these lugs are suitable for a wide range of electrical installations, from commercial switchboards to industrial distribution systems. Compliance with AS/NZS4325 Part 1 and major international standards ensures the product meets the expectations of Australian electrical contractors working on compliant installations.

Trade-Ready Design for Fast, Efficient Installations

Designed with electricians in mind, the CABAC BS95/12 bi-metal stalk lug supports efficient cable preparation and termination on site. The jointing compound inside the barrel reduces preparation time while helping protect the connection from moisture and oxidation.

Each lug is individually packed, making it easy to handle, transport, and store in vans or jobsite kits. Because the lug follows Australian dimensional standards, it integrates seamlessly with commonly used crimping tools and installation practices.

For contractors managing tight project timelines, using reliable terminations like CABAC bi-metal lugs helps reduce rework, maintain compliance, and keep switchboard and distribution installations moving efficiently.
