Cembre 2162690 (S2.5-U8) non-insulated electrolytic copper fork terminal with tin-plated finish for 1.5-2.5 mm² conductors featuring an 8.4 mm fork width.
£0.20
The Cembre 2162690 is a premium non-insulated copper fork terminal, also referenced as S2.5-U8, designed to provide secure, low-resistance electrical terminations for stranded copper conductors. Manufactured from high-conductivity electrolytic copper with a corrosion-resistant tin-plated finish, it delivers outstanding electrical performance and long service life in demanding industrial environments.
Designed for professional panel builders, OEMs and electrical contractors, the terminal features a brazed seam barrel for exceptional mechanical strength together with a rifled internal barrel that enhances conductor grip and electrical contact after crimping. The open fork design enables faster installation and simplifies maintenance by allowing the terminal to be removed without fully removing the fixing screw.
Suitable for 1.5–2.5 mm² (16–14 AWG) conductors and an 8.4 mm fork width, the Cembre 2162690 is ideal for industrial control panels, switchgear, machinery, power distribution systems and automation equipment where reliable electrical connections are essential.
Cembre S-Series non-insulated terminals are manufactured from electrolytic copper strip and finished with corrosion-resistant tin plating to provide dependable electrical conductivity and long-term durability. The brazed seam barrel delivers consistent crimp quality while the rifled barrel enhances conductor retention and pull-out resistance.
The fork terminal design allows faster servicing of electrical equipment by permitting removal without completely removing the fixing hardware, making it ideal for maintenance-intensive industrial installations.
