With the development of electronics and electrical engineering, the connection between cables and wires is of utmost importance. The strong connection between components not only ensures the correct operation of electrical components, but also creates convenience in service and repair. The main technology for joining different electronic components in different machines and devices is by soldering. This is not always the appropriate and convenient way of working. When soldering, we have prerequisites for corrosion, for loose connections, as well as the risk of a short circuit and, accordingly, damage to the components or incorrect operation of the device. This has created a prerequisite for the creation of cable lugs or also called cable shoes.
Insulated cable lugs help ensure a strong and secure connection between different components by protecting the wires from problems, access to moisture and dirt on the cables, as well as being convenient when you need to quickly and easily connect and disconnect components during service or when changing the structure of the electrical devices. They are suitable for multi-core cables of different types, keeping them strong in a bundle, protecting them from mechanical damage and twisting. Unlike insulated tips, non-insulated tips should not be used in tight spaces where they may come into contact with different materials, other wires or electrical components, as this may cause a short circuit or damage to the electrical system.
Depending on the application, cable lugs can be in the form of bushings (tubes) that can easily repair breaks in different wires or join pieces of wires together, as well as protect cables from breakage or injury. They can also be in the form of a lug with a bolt hole, so that the various wires can be clamped and thus withstand load, vibration or other extreme conditions without the risk of short circuit or looseness of the connection.
This type of cable lug is suitable for connecting to a flat cable lug as well as to locations using screw or "quick-connect" or spring-type terminals. Extremely suitable for multi-core cables and wires, preventing them from spreading or breaking the individual fibers of the cable.
This type of socket ferrules are suitable for male flat connectors or screws.
Sleeve-type cable lug is suitable for connecting two wires.
The flat type cable lug is of different sizes, male and female respectively, and is suitable for connecting two wires used in hard-to-reach places where certain electrical components need to be turned on or off. It is a type of male plug and socket depending on the application.
A ferrule is a tube used when it is necessary to join two wires or to protect a wire from breaking, twisting, breaking and other types of mechanical damage from loading.
An ear type cable lug is a lug ending with an annular hole of various diameters and is used for electrical components that must have a strong connection to an electrical element or other conductor and allows the connection to be strengthened by means of a washer and bolt.
A plug-type cable lug is a U-shaped lug designed for attaching cables and wires to screws and screw terminals.
Pin type cable lugs are a flat or round end lug with insulation, for connecting wires to screw terminals or to another conductor. They can be male or female and are suitable for narrow and hard-to-reach spaces.
