Ergom K45R 50/8 45° Angled Ring Terminal

The Ergom K45R 50/8 is a professional-grade 45-degree angled ring terminal designed to facilitate secure and efficient electrical connections. Engineered specifically for cables with a 50 mm² cross-section, this terminal features an 8 mm stud hole, making it an essential component for industrial electrical systems where space constraints or specific cable routing requirements exist. Its angled design allows for easier installation in tight enclosures, ensuring that the cable remains organized and under minimal mechanical stress.

Advantages

The primary advantage of the Ergom K45R 50/8 terminal is its specialized 45-degree geometry, which significantly improves cable management in confined electrical panels and junction boxes. Constructed from high-quality conductive materials, it ensures low contact resistance and excellent electrical conductivity, which is vital for maintaining system integrity. The robust design is built to withstand the rigors of industrial environments, providing a reliable, long-term connection that resists vibration and thermal expansion.

Suitable for

• Industrial electrical panel wiring
• Power distribution systems
• Connecting heavy-duty cables to busbars or switchgear
• Applications requiring angled cable entry to save space

When it may not be suitable

This terminal is not suitable for cables with cross-sections other than 50 mm², as an improper fit will lead to poor electrical contact and potential overheating. It is also not intended for use with stud sizes that do not match the 8 mm hole diameter.

Key specifications

• Cable cross-section: 50 mm²
• Stud hole diameter: 8 mm
• Angle: 45 degrees
• Material: High-conductivity copper alloy

How to use

To use the Ergom K45R 50/8, first strip the insulation from the end of the 50 mm² cable to the appropriate length. Insert the conductor fully into the barrel of the terminal. Use a professional-grade crimping tool compatible with this terminal size to create a secure, permanent mechanical bond between the cable and the terminal. Once crimped, place the ring over the corresponding 8 mm stud and tighten the nut firmly to ensure a stable electrical connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the cable cross-section matches the 50 mm² requirement.
• Ensure the mounting stud diameter is exactly 8 mm.
• Check that the 45-degree angle is appropriate for your specific installation layout.
• Confirm you have access to the correct crimping tool for this terminal type.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the crimping process is performed correctly to prevent high-resistance connections. Regularly inspect the terminal for signs of oxidation or loosening in high-vibration environments.
