Cembre CU COMPRESS. SLVE O/H 70MM2 PT70N

Description

Full-Tension Copper Compression Reliability

The Cembre CU Compression Sleeve O/H 70mm² PT70N is engineered for dependable full-tension splicing of stranded hard-drawn copper overhead conductors. Manufactured from 99.9% high-conductivity copper it ensures excellent electrical continuity and mechanical strength across overhead distribution networks. Its precision-formed structure delivers a secure long-lasting joint that minimizes resistance and maintains system performance under load.

The sleeve design eliminates the need for conductor twisting required by traditional McIntyre sleeves reducing installation complexity and improving consistency in field applications. Built for demanding electrical infrastructure it provides contractors with a reliable solution for both maintenance and new installations where durability and conductivity are critical.

Compliant Design for AS 1154.1 Standards

This compression sleeve is fully compliant with AS 1154.1 full tension testing requirements ensuring suitability for regulated Australian overhead line applications. It is trusted by licensed electricians contractors and utility maintenance teams working on infrastructure where safety and compliance are non-negotiable.

Each sleeve incorporates an internal stop to guarantee correct conductor insertion depth while compression markings guide accurate crimp placement for consistent results. Plastic end plugs protect the sleeve interior from contaminants prior to installation preserving conductivity and mechanical integrity. With acceptance across major energy authorities including Energy Australia and Energex it supports reliable deployment in both public and private electrical networks.

Efficient Installation with Hydraulic Crimping

The PT70N copper compression sleeve is designed for fast and efficient field installation using hexagonal dies and the HT51 hydraulic crimper or any larger compatible hydraulic pressing tool. Its clearly marked compression lines ensure accurate die positioning reducing installation errors and improving repeatability across multiple joints.

The sleeve produces a shorter more compact connection compared to traditional alternatives helping electricians achieve cleaner overhead line layouts. By removing the need for conductor twisting installation time is significantly reduced making it ideal for high-volume electrical projects where speed and reliability are essential. Ideal for overhead line contractors Australia-wide use.
