Workshop Warehouse Copper Tube Terminals (Cable Lugs) 50Mm2 X 8Mm (ET75)

Description

Genuine Workshop Warehouse · Part no. ET75

These Workshop Warehouse copper tube terminals take 50mm2 cable and have an 8mm hole, for the thicker battery leads used on larger diesels, vans and leisure battery runs. The high-conductivity copper barrel is electro-tin plated against corrosion and gives a solid, low-resistance joint when crimped properly.

Good to know

• 35mm2 or 50mm2? Go by the cable, not the job: read the size on the sheath and match the barrel to it, because a lug too big for the cable never crimps tight.
• What should I crimp them with? A hydraulic crimper or a heavy hex crimper sized for 50mm2; hammer crimpers work in an emergency but give a less even joint.
• Why tin-plated? Bare copper turns green under the bonnet and the resistance climbs; the tin plating slows that, and heat shrink over the barrel keeps water out of the strands.

Which one?

For lighter 35mm2 cable, the Workshop Warehouse Copper Tube Terminals 35Mm2 X 8Mm (ET73); for 70mm2 cable on a 10mm stud, the 70Mm2 X 10Mm terminals (ET77).
