Key Features
- Designed for terminating aluminium conductors to copper terminals or busbars
- Friction-welded aluminium barrel and copper palm provide a mechanically strong, electrically sound transition
- Chemically treated barrel reduces contact resistance and corrosion
- Pre-filled jointing compound helps disrupt aluminium oxide layers and improve conductivity
- Clearly marked crimping positions and compatible with standard Australian aluminium hexagonal crimp dies
Professional Installation Requirements
- Installation should be performed by a licensed electrical contractor using the specified HT-50/70AL crimp die and manufacturer-recommended crimping sequence. Ensure the conductor size, stud size and installation torque are correct before energising the connection.
Applications
- Aluminium power cable termination to copper busbars
- Switchboards, distribution boards and electrical panels
- Power distribution and industrial electrical installations
- Aluminium-to-copper transitions where galvanic corrosion control is required
Standards & Compliance
- AS/NZS 4325.1
Environmental Benefits
- Aluminium and copper components are recyclable at end of service life
- Friction-welded construction and corrosion-resistant treatment can extend termination service life and reduce replacement waste
- Jointing compound and dissimilar-metal construction support reliable conductivity, helping reduce connection losses caused by oxidation
