Weidmüller KP-M6/-16 Non-Insulated Ring Cable Lug, 16mm², M6 Stud

The Weidmüller KP-M6/-16 is a professional-grade non-insulated ring cable lug engineered for robust and permanent electrical connections. Designed to accommodate conductors with a cross-section of 16 mm², this terminal provides excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical strength, making it an essential component for industrial wiring and control cabinet installations where reliability is paramount.

Advantages

This ring cable lug offers superior durability due to its high-quality construction, ensuring a stable contact point that resists vibration and mechanical stress. The non-insulated design allows for versatile application in environments where specific insulation materials or heat-shrink tubing are required. Its precise engineering ensures a secure fit on M6 studs, facilitating efficient assembly and long-term performance in demanding electrical systems.

Suitable for

• Industrial control panels and switchgear
• Power distribution systems
• Permanent electrical grounding connections
• Heavy-duty machinery wiring

This product may not be suitable for applications requiring pre-insulated terminals for quick installation without additional heat-shrink protection. It is also not intended for use in environments where the cable lug would be exposed to corrosive elements without appropriate protective measures or specialized coatings.

Key specifications

• Conductor cross-section: 16 mm²
• Stud size: M6
• Material: High-conductivity copper
• Insulation: None
• Connection type: Ring terminal

To use the Weidmüller KP-M6/-16, first strip the insulation from the end of the 16 mm² conductor to the appropriate length. Insert the conductor into the barrel of the cable lug and use a compatible professional crimping tool to create a secure, gas-tight connection. Ensure the crimp is performed according to the tool manufacturer's specifications to maintain optimal conductivity. Once crimped, place the ring terminal over the M6 stud and tighten the nut firmly to ensure a stable electrical contact.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your conductor cross-section is exactly 16 mm²
• Ensure the M6 stud size matches your connection point
• Confirm that you have the correct crimping tool for non-insulated terminals
• Assess if additional insulation or heat-shrink tubing is required for your specific installation environment

For optimal performance and safety, always use a calibrated crimping tool designed for 16 mm² non-insulated terminals and ensure the connection point is clean and free of oxidation before installation.
