Flat Pin Cable Lugs

Flat pin cable lugs are used for electrical plug and connection applications in which conductors need to be reliably crimped and then connected to matching receptacles or connection points. In the HILPRESS online shop, you will find HIL-QUICK® flat pin cable lugs in various nominal sizes, conductor cross-sections, colours, lengths and insulation designs.

Flat Pin Cable Lugs for Electrical Plug Connections

Flat pin cable lugs connect a stripped conductor to a flat pin contact. They are therefore suitable for applications requiring a releasable electrical connection with a defined contact area. The conductor is inserted into the cable lug and crimped using a suitable crimping tool. This creates a mechanically stable and electrically conductive connection.

HIL-QUICK® flat pin cable lugs are available in designs based on DIN 46231 and similar specifications. Versions with a flared insulation sleeve are suitable for harmonised cables and make it easier to insert the conductor into the connection area. The most important selection criteria include the nominal cross-section, nominal size, pin dimensions, length, colour and insulation material.

Insulated HIL-QUICK® Flat Pin Cable Lugs with PVC Insulation

Insulated flat pin cable lugs feature a plastic insulation sleeve made of PVC. PVC is the insulating material of the flat pin cable lug and protects the connection area. The specified temperature range is from -10 °C to +70 °C.

These flat pin cable lugs are clearly different from other pin cable lug designs, which may use other insulation materials such as polycarbonate depending on the product. For this category, HILPRESS offers flat pin cable lugs exclusively with PVC insulation. The specific product should always be selected based on the technical data provided in the online shop.

Choosing the Right Flat Pin Cable Lug

When selecting a flat pin cable lug, the appropriate conductor cross-section should be determined first. The nominal cross-section must match the cable used so that the crimp connection remains secure and reliable electrical contact is achieved.

The nominal size, pin dimensions and length should then be selected to match the mating component. Colour coding helps with identification according to the conductor cross-section. Other technical characteristics, such as insulation material, temperature range, pack size and dimensions, should also be taken into account.
