Product Profile of Aluminium Alloy Tubular Bi-metallic Terminals / Lugs
Braco electricals, from 1978, under the brand name " braco" manufactures quality cable glands and electrical terminals. As a part of that braco aluminium alloy tubular bi-metallic terminals / lugs are manufactured out of aluminium of purity equal to or greater than 99.5 % having maximum conductivity not less than 60% iacs and are designed as per is 5082. Salient features are as follows:
-
These are anti-corrosive and used for highly corrosive environment.
- The barrels are kept filled with grease so as to avoid oxidization of the aluminium.
- These are designed to accept a variety of conductor forms especially low stranded compacted conductors.
- The terminals / lugs are mainly used to terminate on copper bus bars. Whenever aluminium ring terminated on to copper or copper based alloy terminals / lugs without suitable plating, results in the corrosion of the joint over a period leading to higher joint resistance.
