£0.30
The Cembre 2046560 BP-U8 is a premium pre-insulated fork (spade) crimp terminal engineered to provide secure, reliable electrical terminations in industrial control panels, switchgear, machinery, OEM equipment and automation systems. As part of the trusted Cembre P-Series insulated terminal range, it delivers dependable long-term electrical performance in demanding industrial environments.
Manufactured from electrolytic copper with more than 99.9% purity and finished with electrolytic tin plating, the BP-U8 provides outstanding electrical conductivity together with excellent corrosion resistance. Its durable halogen-free polycarbonate insulation provides superior mechanical protection, while the funnel-shaped insulation entry simplifies conductor insertion and reduces wiring time.
Designed for 1.5–2.5 mm² conductors with an M8 fork connection, the Cembre 2046560 enables quick installation and removal without completely removing the fixing screw, making it ideal for maintenance, machine building and industrial electrical installations.
Fork terminals provide secure electrical connections while allowing rapid installation and removal without completely removing the terminal screw. This significantly reduces maintenance time and makes them particularly suitable for industrial control panels, machinery, switchgear and automation equipment.
Cembre P-Series insulated terminals combine premium electrolytic copper, corrosion-resistant tin plating and durable halogen-free insulation to deliver reliable long-term electrical performance while meeting recognised industrial standards.
