Cembre 2180670 A3-L12 90° electrolytically tinned copper compression cable lug for 16 mm² copper conductors with an M12 fixing hole.
£1.81
The Cembre 2180670, also identified as the Cembre A3-L12, is a premium 90° copper tube compression cable lug designed for terminating stranded and flexible copper conductors. Its right-angle palm allows cables to enter from the side, making it ideal for compact switchboards, control panels and industrial equipment where space is restricted. The A3-L12 is designed for 16 mm² copper conductors with an M12 fixing hole.
Manufactured from greater than 99.9% pure electrolytic copper tube, the terminal is annealed and electrolytically tinned to provide excellent conductivity, simplified crimping and outstanding resistance to corrosion and mechanical stress. The barrel features both a chamfer and an inspection hole to aid conductor insertion and help ensure consistent, high-quality crimps.
Designed for demanding industrial applications, the Cembre A3-L12 delivers dependable electrical performance and long service life in power distribution systems, machine building, OEM equipment, motor control centres and electrical control cabinets.
Compression cable lugs create permanent electrical and mechanical connections when installed with the correct crimping dies and professional tooling. Their seamless copper construction delivers low electrical resistance together with excellent resistance to vibration and conductor pull-out.
The Cembre A3-L12 right-angle configuration allows conductors to approach terminals from the side, improving cable management and reducing bending stress inside electrical cabinets, switchgear assemblies and industrial automation systems.
