Why Choose the Cembre 2052950 BF-U12 Fork Terminal?
The Cembre 2052950 BF-U12 is a premium pre-insulated blue fork terminal designed to provide secure, long-lasting electrical connections for stranded copper conductors. As part of the trusted Cembre F-Series pre-insulated fork terminals, it is widely used by electrical contractors, panel builders, OEM manufacturers and maintenance engineers for professional low-voltage wiring applications.
Manufactured from 99.9%+ purity electrolytic copper, the terminal is annealed and tin-plated to improve conductivity while increasing resistance to corrosion and mechanical stress. The internally knurled barrel enhances conductor grip during crimping, while the funnel-shaped PVC insulation simplifies cable insertion and helps prevent damage to conductor strands.
Designed for 1.5–2.5 mm² copper conductors, the BF-U12 is suitable for M12 stud connections. Its fork design allows the terminal to be installed or removed without fully removing the fixing screw, making maintenance quicker and reducing installation time. Cembre part number 2052950 is supplied in a pack of 100 terminals.
