Why Choose the Cembre 8010070 PKC108-UK/PK500 Insulated Bootlace Ferrule?
The Cembre 8010070 PKC108-UK/PK500 is a premium yellow insulated bootlace ferrule (wire end sleeve) designed to provide secure, low-resistance termination of stranded copper conductors. Manufactured by Cembre, it reinforces fine wire strands before insertion into screw or clamp terminals, ensuring reliable electrical performance in industrial control panels, switchgear and automation systems.
Manufactured from tin-plated electrolytic copper with a durable polyamide (PA) insulated collar, the ferrule offers excellent electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance and long service life. The funnel-shaped insulated entry simplifies conductor insertion while protecting conductor strands during crimping, producing consistent and professional cable terminations.
Designed for 1.0 mm² stranded copper conductors, the PKC108-UK/PK500 features an 8 mm pin length and is supplied in a pack of 500, making it ideal for electrical contractors, OEM machine builders and panel manufacturers.
