Workshop Warehouse Copper Tube Terminals (Cable Lugs) 35Mm2 X 8Mm (ET73)

Description

Genuine Workshop Warehouse · Part no. ET73

Workshop Warehouse copper tube terminals in 35mm2 x 8mm are cable lugs for heavy battery and starter cable, giving a solid, low-resistance eye to bolt onto an 8mm stud. They are high-conductivity copper with bright electro-tin plating to resist corrosion, a common size for car battery and starter leads.

Good to know

• Is 35mm2 right for my cable? Check the size printed on the cable sheath; the barrel has to match it, and the hole has to fit the stud, here 8mm.
• How do I crimp a lug this size? Use a hydraulic or heavy-duty hex crimper; pliers can't close a tube terminal on cable this thick, and a loose crimp heats up under starter load.
• How do I finish the joint? Strip just enough so every strand reaches the end of the barrel, crimp, then cover the barrel and the cable end with heat shrink to keep moisture out.

Which one?

For heavier 50mm2 cable on the same stud, the Workshop Warehouse Copper Tube Terminals 50Mm2 X 8Mm (ET75); to seal the crimped barrel, Workshop Warehouse Heat Shrink Tubing – Black (EHS44).
