Why Choose the Cembre 2374140 A160-M14 Copper Compression Cable Lug?
The Cembre 2374140, also identified as the A160-M14, is a heavy-duty non-insulated copper compression cable lug designed for terminating large stranded copper conductors in demanding industrial power applications. As part of the trusted Cembre A-M series, it provides outstanding electrical conductivity, mechanical strength and long-term reliability for switchgear, power distribution and industrial electrical installations.
Manufactured from high-purity electrolytic copper with an electrolytic tin-plated finish, the lug offers excellent resistance to corrosion while maintaining a low-resistance electrical connection. The annealed barrel provides optimum compression during installation, ensuring a secure and permanent crimp when used with compatible Cembre tooling.
Designed with an M14 fixing hole, the Cembre 2374140 is suitable for terminating large copper power cables onto switchgear, transformers, busbars and industrial control equipment. Its inspection hole enables installers to verify full conductor insertion before crimping for improved installation quality.
