Ring terminal Ergom KOR 240/12 copper tinned, model E11KM-01020108300

The Ergom KOR 240/12 ring terminal is a high-quality electrical connector engineered for robust and secure bolted connections. Manufactured from high-grade copper and finished with a tin plating, this terminal ensures optimal electrical conductivity and long-term protection against oxidation and corrosion. It is specifically designed for crimping onto conductors, providing a stable mechanical interface that maintains integrity even under demanding operational conditions.

Advantages

The primary benefit of the Ergom KOR 240/12 terminal lies in its superior material composition, which combines the excellent conductivity of copper with the protective properties of a tin-plated surface. This combination minimizes contact resistance and prevents the formation of corrosive layers, ensuring consistent performance over time. The ring-style design facilitates a reliable bolted connection that is resistant to vibrations and mechanical stress, making it an ideal choice for critical electrical infrastructure and heavy-duty applications.

Suitable for

• Industrial power distribution systems
• Automotive electrical wiring and battery connections
• Heavy machinery and equipment installations
• Electrical panels and switchgear assemblies

When it may not be suitable

This terminal is not intended for use with conductors that fall outside the specified cross-sectional range, as this would compromise the quality of the crimp and the safety of the connection. It is also not suitable for environments where the terminal material may be chemically incompatible with the surrounding atmosphere or specific installation requirements.

Key specifications

• Material: Tin-plated copper
• Connection type: Ring terminal
• Mounting method: Bolted connection
• Installation method: Crimping

How to use

To install the Ergom KOR 240/12 terminal, first strip the insulation from the end of the conductor to the appropriate length. Insert the conductor into the barrel of the terminal and use a professional-grade crimping tool designed for this specific terminal size to ensure a secure mechanical bond. Once crimped, place the ring end over the corresponding bolt or stud and tighten the nut securely to establish a firm electrical contact.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the conductor size matches the terminal specifications
• Verify the bolt or stud diameter for the ring opening
• Use appropriate crimping tools for a reliable connection
• Check environmental conditions for compatibility with tin-plated copper

Usage recommendations

Always perform a pull test after crimping to ensure the conductor is firmly secured within the terminal barrel. Ensure that the contact surfaces are clean and free of debris before tightening the bolted connection to maintain low electrical resistance.
