Why Choose the Cembre 2281810 A24-2M10 Copper Compression Terminal?
The Cembre 2281810 (A24-2M10) is a premium two-hole copper compression terminal designed to provide secure, low-resistance electrical terminations for 120 mm² stranded copper conductors. Manufactured from greater than 99.9% pure electrolytic copper, annealed for optimum crimping performance and electrolytically tin plated, it delivers outstanding electrical conductivity, excellent corrosion resistance and dependable long-term reliability in demanding industrial installations.
Part of the trusted Cembre A24-2M Series, this compression lug features a two-hole palm with M10 fixing holes, providing enhanced resistance to vibration and electrodynamic forces compared with standard single-hole terminals. The chamfered barrel and inspection hole simplify conductor insertion while ensuring correct positioning before crimping.
Designed for 120 mm² copper conductors with dual M10 fixing holes spaced at 44.5 mm centres, the Cembre 2281810 is ideal for switchgear, substations, industrial control panels, OEM machinery and power distribution systems where maximum connection security is required.
Electrolytically tin-plated for corrosion protection.
Inspection hole confirms full conductor insertion.
Designed for reliable, low-resistance compression terminations.
