Hydraulic or mechanical crimping (dies per DIN 46235)

Operating Temperature Range

-60°C to 400°C (304) / -60°C to 550°C (Duplex)

Surface Finish

Electropolished (Ra ≤0.8μm) or passivated per ASTM A967

Voltage Rating

Up to 1kV AC/DC (standard), 35kV (insulated versions)

Tensile Strength

515 MPa (304) / 620 MPa (316L) / 750 MPa (Duplex)

Environmental Resistance

Salt spray 1000+ hrs (ASTM B117), IP68 waterproof options

Standards Compliance

UL 486A-B, IEC 61238-1, NACE MR0175 (Duplex), RoHS 3

Installation Method

Torque-controlled (15-50 Nm) with anti-seize compound

Conductor Compatibility

Compatible with Class B/C stranded copper, aluminum (AA-1350), and tinned marine cables

Technical Advantages

Our Stainless Steel Lugs use tough stainless steel with a rust-proof coating, weighing just a few ounces for easy integration into portable or fixed setups. They handle big current loads, keeping connections steady in a wide heat range for dependable operation. 

Strong, lasting crimps eliminate faults that must stay clear in harsh settings while a long lifespan cuts swap-out needs. This combination supports your production with parts that meet tough demands without added complexity.

Industry Applications

Pharmaceutical Cleanrooms

Electropolished 316L lugs meet FDA and EU GMP standards for sterile environments, resisting daily chemical sanitization. 

Offshore Wind Turbines

Duplex stainless steel versions withstand saltwater immersion and 30G vibration loads in nacelle power systems. 

Food Processing Plants

3-A Sanitary compliant lugs endure high-pressure washdowns while preventing bacterial growth in meat/poultry lines. 

Chemical Processing

PTFE-lined lugs resist hydrochloric and sulfuric acid vapors in reactor feed systems. 

Wastewater Treatment

Passivated 304 lugs survive hydrogen sulfide exposure in aeration tank control panels. 

Nuclear Facilities

Radiation-resistant alloys maintain integrity in reactor auxiliary systems for 40+ year service life. 

Steady Power Management

Sourcing professionals need connectors that meet stringent industry standards without compromising supply chain efficiency. Our Stainless Steel Lugs arrive with complete material certifications, including corrosion validation per NACE TM0169.  

Available in pre-configured customiztion with matched hardware, they reduce installation time by 40% compared to piece-part sourcing. By extending service life to 25+ years in coastal or chemical environments, they deliver the lowest total cost of ownership for critical infrastructure projects.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

How do your lugs address microgalvanic corrosion in mixed-metal installations?

Our proprietary isolation system combines ceramic-coated stainless hardware with dielectric sleeves to create electrochemical barriers between dissimilar metals. This prevents the 0.5-1.5V potential differences that drive galvanic corrosion, particularly in aluminum-to-stainless transitions. Third-party testing shows our solution reduces corrosion rates by 92% compared to unisolated connections in coastal environments. 

What makes your 316L lugs suitable for pharmaceutical cleanroom validation?

We offer FDA-compliant documentation packages including material certificates with <0.1% lead content, surface roughness maps (Ra≤0.8μm), and cleanroom packing certifications. Each lug undergoes USP Class VI testing for biocompatibility and is packaged in ISO Class 5 cleanrooms with particle count records – critical for FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliance in sterile manufacturing.

Can your lugs withstand radiation exposure in nuclear decommissioning projects?

Our neutron-resistant alloy blend (FeCrMoV) maintains 85% of original tensile strength after 10⁸ rad gamma exposure, per ASTM E706 testing. These lugs include permanent radiation markers that change color at 50kGy doses, providing visual safety indicators. They’re the only lugs qualified for IAEA Category 1 & 2 nuclear waste handling systems. 

Can I get a small test batch before placing a large order?

Yes, we offer sample packs of 5-10 lugs in your required size and material for evaluation. These ship within 2 business days with no obligation. Include your crimping tool details, and we’ll pre-test a lug on your cable type to ensure proper compression. 

Can you match our existing connector footprints to simplify retrofits?

Our reverse engineering team can CAD-map your legacy lugs in 24 hours using your samples or drawings. We replicate Bolt hole patterns to ±0.1mm, Barrel profiles for tooling compatibility and Weight distribution, all while upgrading materials to 316L/Duplex. 85% of retrofit orders ship within 7 days with no minimum quantity.
