Mechanical Connectors
The full range of shear bolt straight through, branch and service mechanical connectors have been tested to IEC 61238-1.
Manufactured from aluminium with a patented reversible bolt slide providing a greater range for the cable jointing of copper or aluminium conductors.
Alleviates the need to bend the conductor double or to pack out.
Will accept dissimilar metal conductors without the need to shape stranded conductors by hand.
Precise design with shear head torque control providing high conductivity up to 160C.
Short circuit tested to 270C at 25800 Amps.
Tensile tested to 18200 Newton metres.
Straight Through Connectors
The MC range of shear bolt mechanical connectors is designed for mains to mains or mains to sub mains jointing. Will also accept an additional single or double service sub mains.
