Why Choose the Cembre 2397708 CL350IH-12 Colour-Coded Copper Compression Lug?
The Cembre 2397708, manufacturer reference CL350IH-12, is a premium long-barrel colour-coded copper compression ring terminal engineered for terminating large copper conductors in industrial power distribution, switchgear, substations and renewable energy installations. Manufactured from annealed electrolytic copper with a purity greater than 99.9%, it delivers outstanding electrical conductivity together with exceptional mechanical strength for demanding heavy-duty power applications.
The CLIH Series features an extended barrel that provides increased conductor contact area and superior pull-out strength after crimping. An integrated inspection hole enables installers to confirm full conductor insertion before compression, while the electrolytic tin-plated finish offers excellent protection against oxidation and corrosion in harsh industrial environments.
Designed for 350 kcmil (approximately 185 mm²) copper conductors, the CL350IH-12 incorporates an M12 fixing hole (13.2 mm) together with red colour coding for rapid identification of the correct conductor size and compatible Cembre compression die.
