Here are some key features and uses of copper tubular lugs:

Key Features:

1. Material: Made from high-conductivity copper, often plated with tin or silver for corrosion resistance and better electrical performance.
2. Design: Tubular lugs have a cylindrical shape, allowing them to securely hold wires or cables. The design typically features a barrel that accommodates the wire and a flange with holes for bolting or clamping the lug to a terminal.
3. Crimping and Soldering: Tubular lugs are commonly attached to cables or wires through crimping or soldering, which ensures a solid electrical connection and mechanical stability.
4. Variety of Sizes: They come in various sizes to accommodate different wire gauges and terminal bolt sizes.
5. Durability: Copper lugs are highly durable and provide low-resistance electrical connections, even in harsh environments, which is why they're often used in industrial and electrical power applications.

Applications:

• Power Distribution: Connecting cables to power distribution boards, transformers, and generators.
• Electrical Panels: For connecting wires to terminal blocks or busbars.
• Marine and Automotive: Copper tubular lugs are used in marine, automotive, and heavy machinery wiring systems due to their corrosion resistance and strong electrical conductivity.
• Industrial: In industrial environments, these lugs are often used in high-current applications where reliability is crucial.
  
  

Advantages:

• High Conductivity: Copper ensures minimal energy loss and efficient power transmission.
• Corrosion Resistance: Plating with tin or silver increases the durability of the lug, especially in humid or high-moisture environments.
• Strong Mechanical Connection: The crimping or soldering process produces a robust mechanical connection between the wire and the terminal.
• Wide Compatibility: Available in a range of sizes to fit different cables and terminals, making them versatile for various applications.
  
  

Types of Copper Tubular Lugs:

• Standard Copper Tubular Lugs: Simple, straight barrel design for typical applications.
• Insulated Copper Tubular Lugs: These feature a plastic insulation that covers the crimp area to prevent accidental short circuits and provide extra protection against the environment.
• Stud/Through-Hole Lugs: Lugs that have a hole in the flange designed to fit onto bolts or studs of specific sizes.
  
  

If you're selecting copper tubular lugs for a project, it's important to choose the correct size for both the wire gauge and the terminal stud or bolt. This ensures that the connection will be both mechanically secure and electrically efficient.
