Why Choose the Cembre 2162530 Fork Terminal?
The Cembre 2162530 is a premium non-insulated fork terminal designed to provide secure, removable electrical terminations for copper conductors in industrial and commercial applications. Manufactured by Cembre, this professional-grade terminal combines high-purity electrolytic copper with precision engineering to deliver outstanding electrical conductivity, excellent mechanical strength and dependable long-term reliability.
Designed for 1.5–2.5 mm² (16–14 AWG) conductors, the terminal features a U4/2 (M4) fork opening and is supplied as the S2.5-U4/2 variant. The brazed seam barrel with internal knurling improves conductor retention and pull-out strength, while the electrolytic tin-plated finish provides excellent corrosion resistance for demanding industrial environments.
Suitable for professional compression crimping, the Cembre 2162530 is widely used by panel builders, OEM manufacturers and maintenance engineers in electrical control panels, industrial machinery, switchgear and automation systems where reliable screw-terminal connections are required.
