Why Choose the Cembre 2162770 Non-Insulated Copper Fork Terminal?

The Cembre 2162770, also identified as S2.5-U12, is a premium non-insulated copper fork terminal engineered 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 electricians, control panel builders and OEM machine manufacturers, the terminal incorporates a brazed seam barrel for superior mechanical strength together with an internally rifled barrel that improves conductor grip and electrical contact after crimping. The open fork configuration enables rapid installation and simplifies maintenance by allowing removal without completely removing the fixing bolt.

Suitable for 1.5–2.5 mm² (16–14 AWG) conductors and a 1/2" (approximately 13 mm) stud, the Cembre 2162770 is ideal for industrial control panels, switchgear, power distribution systems, machinery and automation equipment requiring dependable electrical connections.
