Why Choose the Cembre 2052790 BF-U6 Fork Terminal?
The Cembre 2052790 BF-U6 is a professional-quality pre-insulated blue fork terminal designed to create secure electrical and mechanical connections between copper conductors and M6 screw terminals. Part of the established Cembre F range of pre-insulated terminals, it is suitable for electricians, control-panel builders, equipment manufacturers and industrial maintenance engineers.
Manufactured from high-conductivity copper with an annealed and tin-plated finish, the BF-U6 provides dependable current transfer while helping resist oxidation and corrosion. Its fork-shaped contact allows the terminal to be installed or removed without completely taking out the terminal screw, making wiring, inspection and maintenance more efficient.
The terminal accepts copper conductors with a cross-sectional area of 1.5–2.5 mm² and is designed for connection to M6 studs and screws. A blue PVC insulating sleeve provides conductor-size identification and incorporates a funnel-shaped entry that helps guide every conductor strand into the terminal barrel. Cembre part number 2052790 is normally supplied as a pack of 100 terminals.
Key Advantages
Professional pre-insulated fork terminal for copper conductors.
Suitable for 1.5–2.5 mm² cable sizes.
M6 fork connection for compatible studs and terminal screws.
Fork design enables convenient installation without fully removing the screw.
Rifled barrel surface improves conductor contact and mechanical retention after crimping.
Annealed, tin-plated copper construction supports reliable electrical conductivity.
Blue insulation provides fast visual identification of the applicable cable range.

Secure Crimped Connections for Electrical Installations
Fork terminals provide an efficient method of terminating stranded copper cables on screw-type electrical connections. The open fork profile slides beneath a loosened screw head, allowing installation and removal without fully extracting the screw from the terminal block or equipment connection.
The Cembre BF-U6 combines this convenient connection format with a carefully designed crimp barrel. Its funnel-shaped insulating sleeve helps prevent loose conductor strands from folding back during insertion, while the rifled internal surface improves contact with the strands when compressed using a suitable crimping tool.
