CABAC BIMET SECT LUG 185MM2 4CORE BLS185/4-12 x 1/EACH

Description

Reliable Termination Performance for 185mm² Aluminium Conductors

The CABAC Bi-Metal Sector Lug 185mm² (4 Core) is designed for secure and efficient termination of solid aluminium conductors in demanding electrical installations. Built with a high-purity aluminium sleeve and copper palm, this lug provides excellent conductivity while maintaining a strong mechanical connection.

The aluminium barrel is chemically treated to reduce contact resistance and help minimise corrosion over time, ensuring consistent electrical performance in switchboards, distribution systems, and industrial power installations.

For installation, the lug is crimped using a ‘V’ shaped nest die and WW in a 13-tonne crimping tool, allowing electricians to achieve a solid, reliable termination that holds up under load and vibration.

Built for Compliance and Long-Term Electrical Reliability

Manufactured using friction welding in accordance with IEC standards, the joint between the aluminium barrel and copper palm is engineered for durability and dependable conductivity. Both conductive components use high-purity metals—99.6% aluminium for the sleeve and 99.95% copper for the palm—to support consistent current flow and minimise losses.

The lug operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 100°C, making it suitable for a wide range of electrical environments including industrial panels, distribution boards, and heavy-duty infrastructure installations.

Compliance with international standards including AS/NZS4325 Part 1, IEC, DIN/VDE, JIS, and BS provides additional confidence for contractors working on regulated commercial and industrial projects where reliability and certification matter.

Trade-Ready Supply for Fast Project Turnarounds

For electricians and contractors managing tight project timelines, having the right termination components on hand is critical. The CABAC BLS185/4-12 Bi-Metal Sector Lug supports efficient installation while helping reduce the risk of poor terminations that can lead to overheating or rework.

Available through iSupply Electrical’s trade-focused range, contractors benefit from competitive wholesale pricing, reliable stock access, and fast delivery across Australia. Whether you’re completing switchboard upgrades, commercial fit-outs, or industrial maintenance work, sourcing quality compliant lugs quickly helps keep jobs moving and reduces downtime on site.
