Erko ARC 10-35/1 Tubular Aluminum Ring Terminal 10-35mm²

The Erko ARC 10-35/1 is a professional tubular ring terminal engineered for the secure termination of aluminum conductors. Designed to accommodate cables with a cross-section ranging from 10mm² to 35mm², this component is essential for maintaining stable electrical contact in various power distribution systems. Its high-quality aluminum construction ensures optimal conductivity and resistance to environmental factors, making it a reliable choice for demanding industrial environments.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this tubular terminal is its specialized design for aluminum cables, which helps prevent oxidation and ensures a low-resistance connection. The robust material composition provides excellent mechanical strength, allowing the terminal to withstand vibrations and thermal expansion common in power networks. Its precise dimensions facilitate easy installation while maintaining a consistent and durable electrical path for long-term operational safety.

Suitable for

• Industrial power distribution panels
• Aluminum cable termination in electrical cabinets
• Infrastructure and utility power projects
• Connection of power conductors to busbars or equipment terminals

When it may not be suitable

This terminal is specifically designed for aluminum conductors and should not be used with copper cables unless appropriate bimetallic transition methods are applied. It is also not intended for high-frequency signal transmission or applications requiring extreme flexibility, such as moving machinery cables.

Key specifications

• Conductor cross-section range: 10mm² to 35mm²
• Material: High-grade aluminum
• Type: Tubular ring terminal
• Application: Power distribution and electrical installations

How to use

To install the Erko ARC 10-35/1, first strip the insulation from the aluminum conductor to the appropriate length. Ensure the conductor surface is clean and free of oxidation. Insert the conductor fully into the tubular barrel of the terminal. Use a professional crimping tool specifically calibrated for aluminum tubular terminals to perform the compression. Ensure the crimp is uniform to guarantee a secure mechanical and electrical bond.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the cross-section of your aluminum cable matches the 10-35mm² range
• Ensure you have the correct crimping tool compatible with aluminum tubular terminals
• Check the mounting bolt size required for the ring hole
• Confirm compatibility with the target equipment or busbar material

Usage recommendations

Always use an appropriate contact grease when terminating aluminum conductors to prevent oxidation and ensure long-term connection stability. Ensure that the crimping process is performed according to the manufacturer's guidelines for the specific tool used.
