Why Choose the Cembre 2397888 CL400-12 Colour-Coded Ring Terminal?
The Cembre 2397888 CL400-12 is a premium colour-coded long barrel copper compression ring terminal designed to provide secure, low-resistance electrical connections for demanding industrial, commercial and utility applications. Manufactured from greater than 99.9% purity electrolytic copper with an electrolytic tin-plated finish, it offers excellent conductivity, superior corrosion resistance and long-term mechanical reliability. Unlike standard inspection-hole terminals, the CL Series features a sealed barrel design that helps prevent moisture and dirt ingress, making it particularly suitable for outdoor and harsh environments.
As part of the trusted Cembre CL Series, the CL400-12 is designed for 200 mm² copper conductors and features an M12 stud connection. The long annealed barrel includes a chamfered conductor entry for quick cable insertion while delivering repeatable, high-quality crimps using compatible Cembre tooling.
Suitable for industrial switchgear, electrical distribution equipment, substations, renewable energy systems and heavy-duty machinery, the CL400-12 provides dependable electrical performance wherever high-current cable terminations are required.
