The Helukabel grounding braid is a high-quality electrical component designed for effective grounding and bonding in industrial environments. With a cross-section of 25mm2 and a total length of 200mm, this flexible copper braid is engineered to provide a reliable, low-resistance path for electrical currents. The assembly comes with pre-pressed terminals on both ends, each featuring an 8.5mm hole, which facilitates quick and secure installation onto standard mounting points.
Advantages
This grounding braid offers superior flexibility compared to solid conductors, making it an ideal choice for applications where vibration or mechanical movement is present. The high-conductivity copper construction ensures minimal energy loss and optimal performance in grounding systems. Its pre-terminated design eliminates the need for specialized crimping tools on-site, saving time and ensuring a consistent, high-quality connection that meets industrial standards for durability and safety.
Suitable for

How to use
To install the Helukabel grounding braid, ensure that the mounting surfaces are clean and free of paint or oxidation to guarantee a low-resistance electrical contact. Align the 8.5mm terminal holes with the corresponding grounding studs or bolts on your equipment. Secure the braid firmly using appropriate fasteners, such as bolts and washers, ensuring that the connection is tight to prevent loosening due to vibration. Verify the integrity of the connection using a multimeter if necessary.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify the required length for your specific grounding application
- Ensure the 8.5mm terminal hole size matches your existing mounting studs
- Check that the 25mm2 cross-section is sufficient for the expected fault current
- Confirm the environmental conditions to ensure copper is suitable for the installation site
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance and longevity, apply a thin layer of conductive grease to the contact surfaces before fastening to prevent corrosion and maintain a stable, low-resistance connection over time.
