Insulated wire end sleeves in tape form DIN 46228

Ribbon ferrules offer a number of advantages that make them a preferred choice for many applications in electrical engineering. This specific shape of the ferrules not only facilitates processing and application, but also improves the efficiency and reliability of electrical connections.

Wire end ferrules in strip form

The DIN 46228-4 ferrules in strip form are a high-quality solution for the finishing of electrical cables manufactured in accordance with the German industrial standard DIN 46228 Part 4. Their main material, high-quality copper, ensures excellent electrical conductivity and is protected against corrosion by tin plating, which increases the durability and reliability of the connections. A significant feature of these ferrules is the polypropylene insertion funnel, which not only makes handling easier, but also impresses with its insulating properties, chemical resistance and mechanical strength. In addition, these ferrules are designed for use in environments with temperatures of up to 105 °C and are available in various sizes for conductor cross-sections from 0.34 mm² to 2.5 mm², enabling a wide range of applications. Their halogen-free nature makes them an environmentally friendly option that improves safety, particularly in the event of fire. Compliance with DIN 46228-4 guarantees quality and performance standards, making these ferrules a reliable choice for professional electrical installations.
