The tip is cable. Features of modern models

For termination of current-carrying conductors in modern production, a cable-type cable head is used. The method of screwing the hexagon head bolts in this case, the tip on the core is fastened. When the specified force is reached, the head simply breaks. Thus, the connection becomes reliable and durable, it meets all government standards and requirements.

Information about the tips

To connect and terminate the cable, the most commonly used is the cable end for pressing. It is necessary to fully control the penetration of the cable inside the tip to ensure a reliable connection.

In this case, the size of the tip becomes a rather important factor. In addition, the correct choice should be the degree of sealing and crimping the junction, the size of the working tool and the connecting sleeve.

The connecting sleeves and cables for pressure testing are labeled at the production stage. Thanks to this marking, it becomes easier to understand which cable is suitable for a particular product. The contact connection will be of high quality only if the dimensions are selected as correctly as possible. Then the cable tip becomes the most effective and reliable.

The cleanliness of the contact surface is one of the factors that ensures the reliable operation of the contact connection. This is also facilitated by the contact pressure necessary for the correct operation of the entire system as a whole.

In order to achieve good performance, you must first completely remove from the surface of the tips, sleeves or veins of the oxidation film, insulation PE or paper insulation. The oxidation film should not be present on the surface, because its electrical conductivity is low enough.

About cable lugs for pressure testing

A cable tip of this type can be reusable or disposable. In the case of dismantling, reusable cables are much easier to disassemble, in order to re-install them in the same place. Disposable tips differ in that they need to be pressed.

At its core, cable copper tips, the price of which can be different, is a hollow glass that is made of soft metal.

Qualitative crimping and reliable crimping of the cable are guaranteed only if the type and size of the cable lug and the matrices are matched correctly.

Tips from aluminum

A holistic connection of conductors from aluminum is the main task that aluminum tips perform. Products made of this metal, used in its pure form, are generally considered to be the most suitable for modern cables, because they ensure reliable operation of the entire structure. In other products, impurities may be used, which sometimes adversely affect the qualities of the starting material.

In addition, copper cable lugs were widely used for crimping. The installation takes only a few minutes. But they are not strong enough to bypass aluminum products. However, in this case, an integral monolithic connection is obtained, which ensures a qualitative connection.
