We have the design and production capability to deliver exactly the type lug you need, shaped the way you need. • Straight, 45° and 90° angle • Stacking or non-stacking • Narrow tongue or standard • Tin, silver, lead, nickel ® Thomas & Betts offers an extensive line of copper Color-Keyed lugs for #8 AWG through 1000 kcmil flex and code cables. The lug tongues are modified in several different configurations to meet your exact needs: 45° and 90° bend angles, narrow tongues to fit into circuit breakers, offset tongues to stack two cables, and special stud hole drilling. These special configurations let you: (1) run cable directly to the bus bar with no bending, (2) terminate into very narrow spaces, and (3) utilize minimal bus bar space. The specially designed lugs help you “clean up” your cabling in crowded enclosures. The photographs show some examples of how and where the lugs can be used. ® Customized Color-Keyed Connectors for Copper Cables • Standard and special tongue angles, stacking and non-stacking, bolt holes sizes and centers, protective platings. ® • Specially modified one and two hole copper Color-Keyed compression lugs, Series 54100, 54200, 54850BE and 54930BE for flex and code copper stranded cables.
