Erko KCS45 Tubular Copper Ring Terminal 45° 12mm Hole 150mm²

The Erko KCS45 tubular copper ring terminal is a professional-grade electrical component engineered for secure and efficient termination of 150mm² conductors. Featuring a specialized 45-degree angled design, this terminal facilitates easier cable routing in confined spaces, particularly within electrical cabinets and power distribution panels. The 12mm mounting hole ensures compatibility with standard M12 bolts, providing a stable and conductive connection for demanding industrial applications.

Advantages

Constructed from high-conductivity copper, this terminal offers superior electrical performance and minimal resistance, which is essential for maintaining system integrity under load. The tubular design allows for precise crimping, ensuring a permanent mechanical and electrical bond between the cable and the terminal. Its robust construction provides excellent resistance to mechanical stress and environmental factors, making it a reliable choice for long-term electrical infrastructure projects.

Suitable for

• Power distribution systems
• Industrial electrical wiring
• Switchgear and control panel assembly
• Heavy-duty electrical installations

This terminal may not be suitable for applications involving conductors with a cross-section other than 150mm², as using an incorrect size can lead to poor electrical contact and overheating. It is also not intended for use in environments with extreme corrosive agents unless additional protective measures are applied.

Key specifications

• Material: High-conductivity copper
• Conductor cross-section: 150mm²
• Angle: 45 degrees
• Mounting hole diameter: 12mm
• Design: Tubular ring terminal

To use the Erko KCS45 terminal, first strip the insulation from the 150mm² conductor to the appropriate length. Insert the conductor fully into the tubular barrel of the terminal. Using a professional-grade hydraulic or mechanical crimping tool compatible with this terminal size, apply the necessary pressure to create a secure crimp. Ensure the connection is clean and free of debris before fastening the terminal to the busbar or contact point using an M12 bolt.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the conductor cross-section matches 150mm²
• Ensure the M12 bolt size is compatible with the 12mm mounting hole
• Confirm the 45-degree angle is appropriate for your specific cable routing requirements
• Ensure you have the correct crimping dies for this specific terminal type

Usage recommendations: Always use a calibrated crimping tool to ensure the integrity of the connection. Regularly inspect the terminal for signs of oxidation or loose connections in high-vibration environments to maintain optimal electrical performance.
