Why Choose the Cembre 2180659 A3-L10 90° Copper Tube Cable Lug?

The Cembre 2180659, also identified as the Cembre A3-L10, is a premium 90° copper tube compression cable lug designed for terminating flexible and finely stranded copper conductors. Its right-angle palm enables efficient cable routing where installation space is limited while providing a secure bolted electrical connection for industrial and commercial applications.

Manufactured from high-conductivity annealed electrolytic copper and finished with an electrolytic tin coating, the terminal offers excellent electrical performance together with enhanced corrosion resistance. The seamless barrel incorporates an inspection hole to confirm correct conductor insertion before crimping, helping achieve reliable and repeatable installations.

Designed for 16 mm² copper conductors and fitted with an M10 fixing hole, the Cembre A3-L10 is ideally suited to switchgear, motor control centres, industrial machinery, control panels and OEM electrical assemblies requiring professional compression terminations.
