Cable lug, CellPack SN ALU-F 70x12 pressed sealed aluminum, model 2-1005

CellPack SN ALU-F 70x12 pressed sealed aluminum cable lug is designed for terminating aluminum conductors in power distribution and industrial installations. The lug features a 70 x 12 mm flat eye for bolted connections and a pressed, sealed body that provides mechanical strength while reducing the risk of corrosion at the connection point. It is intended for use where a reliable, low-maintenance conductor-to-equipment connection is required.

Advantages

The pressed sealed aluminum construction delivers consistent mechanical strength and uniform contact surface area for aluminum conductors. A flat 70 x 12 mm eye ensures a stable bolted connection to busbars, terminal plates or equipment lugs. The sealed design reduces exposure of the conductor end to moisture and contaminants, helping to limit galvanic corrosion. The lug's compact profile facilitates installation in confined spaces while providing robust electrical continuity.

Suitable for

• Termination of aluminum power cables to busbars and terminal blocks
• Industrial switchgear and distribution panels
• Heavy-duty electrical equipment connections in substations and plants
• Low- to medium-voltage distribution circuits where aluminum conductors are used

Key specifications

• Material: pressed sealed aluminum
• Eye (flat) dimensions: 70 x 12 mm
• Conductor compatibility: aluminum conductors (specified cross-sections by manufacturer)
• Connection type: bolted flat-eye terminal
• Construction: one-piece pressed lug with sealed termination area

How to use

Select a lug sized appropriately for the aluminum conductor cross-section and ensure the mating bolt and terminal are compatible with the 70 x 12 mm flat eye. Strip the conductor insulation to the recommended length, insert the conductor into the lug barrel, and perform the prescribed crimping or pressing process using a suitable tool for pressed lugs. After crimping, inspect the connection for proper compression and ensure the sealed area encloses the conductor end. Secure the lug to the mating surface using the correct bolt torque for the application and check for firm mechanical and electrical contact.

Usage recommendations

Use approved crimping/pressing tools and follow installation torque values for bolted connections. When joining dissimilar metals or when environmental exposure is expected, apply appropriate corrosion-inhibiting compounds or isolation measures as recommended by installation standards to prevent galvanic corrosion. Verify conductor compatibility with the lug and consult project documentation or local regulations for temperature rating and current-carrying requirements.
