Ergom KOR 50/12 Copper Ring Terminal, Tin-Plated

The Ergom KOR 50/12 is a professional-grade ring terminal engineered for secure and efficient electrical terminations. Constructed from high-quality copper and featuring a durable tin-plated finish, this terminal provides excellent electrical conductivity while protecting against oxidation and environmental corrosion. It is specifically designed to accommodate 50 mm² conductors and features a 12 mm stud hole, making it a reliable component for demanding electrical systems.

Advantages

The primary benefit of the Ergom KOR 50/12 is its robust construction, which ensures a stable and low-resistance connection over long periods of operation. The tin-plated copper material offers superior resistance to corrosion, which is essential for maintaining integrity in various industrial and residential environments. Its precise design facilitates easy installation, providing a secure fit that minimizes the risk of loose connections and potential electrical faults.

Suitable for

• Industrial electrical panels and switchgear
• Residential power distribution systems
• Grounding connections
• Heavy-duty electrical machinery and equipment

When it may not be suitable

This terminal is not intended for use with conductors that do not match the 50 mm² specification, as improper sizing can lead to overheating or mechanical failure. It is also not suitable for applications requiring high-temperature resistance beyond the standard limits of tin-plated copper or in environments with extreme chemical exposure that could degrade the plating.

Key specifications

• Material: Tin-plated copper
• Conductor cross-section: 50 mm²
• Stud hole diameter: 12 mm
• Terminal type: Ring terminal

How to use

To use the Ergom KOR 50/12, first strip the insulation from the end of the 50 mm² conductor to the appropriate length. Insert the conductor into the barrel of the terminal. Use a professional-grade crimping tool specifically calibrated for this size to ensure a permanent, gas-tight mechanical bond. Once crimped, secure the ring terminal to the desired contact point using a 12 mm bolt or stud, ensuring the connection is tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the cross-section of your cable matches the 50 mm² requirement.
• Ensure the mounting stud or bolt size is compatible with the 12 mm hole.
• Confirm that the crimping tool available is suitable for 50 mm² terminals.

Usage recommendations

Always use a calibrated crimping tool to ensure the integrity of the connection. Avoid reusing terminals once they have been crimped, as this can compromise the mechanical and electrical performance of the joint.
