HIL-QUICK® crimp terminals in various designs and shapes without insulation

Cable lugs without insulation for fixed connections

Cable lugs without insulation enable fast and safe connection of line cables to electrical machines and the connection of the lines. Stripped cables are inserted into the cable lugs and pressed together with special pliers. Depending on the design, they offer different connection options and can be installed, for example, on line screws and plug devices. The cable lugs without insulation can also be connected to each other using a plug-in system. Their connections offer numerous advantages over soldering. For example, they are easier to install with the right crimping tool and provide higher and more durable protection of wires and wire transitions. Cable lugs without insulation have the advantage over their counterparts with insulation in that they can withstand higher continuous operating temperatures.

Types of cable lugs without insulation

Cable lugs without insulation differ first of all in their functional design. They are intended either to bring cable guides to electrical installations or devices or constructions or, on the other hand, serve as connecting elements of cables. They are useful when cables are repaired or extended. Accordingly, they differ in the type of connection. For example, there are variants with ring lugs. They are intended for attachment to screws and again differ in size, which is based on the metric screw size. Furthermore, there are forked cable lugs that can be clamped to screws or bolts without having to completely remove them from the housing or wall.

Accessories for uninsulated cable lugs

For a safe, reliable and fast installation, cable lugs without insulation require special tools that are adapted to the respective cable lugs. Not only the size is taken into account, but also the shape of the cable lugs. Universal pliers cannot take this into account; instead, HILPRESS crimping pliers or crimping presses are recommended. For versions without insulation, insulations can also be easily applied subsequently, such as the heat shrinkable sleeves. They provide reliable and fast insulation of all uninsulated cables and connections.
