Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

How do aerospace lugs keep my wiring light without losing power?

Our Aerospace-Specific Lugs use top-grade aluminum or copper to carry big current while staying light, cutting weight in your setups. This lean design saves on fuel costs and keeps your builds efficient without weak spots. Plus, the strong hold ensures steady power, so your systems stay up and running.

What stops my connections from shaking loose in flight?

Our lugs lock in with a tight crimp and vibration strength, holding firm against bumps and jolts in the air. This solid grip avoids power cuts, keeping your gear safe and working smooth. As a result, you skip repair time and keep production on schedule. 

Can these lugs handle hot and cold swings on aircraft?

Built to take tough conditions, our Aerospace-Specific Lugs stay strong through heat and cold shifts without breaking down. This toughness stops faults or wear, saving you from extra fixes or delays. In turn, your wiring keeps going strong, no matter the temperature.

Why do these lugs fit my small aerospace parts better than others?

Our lugs come in a slim shape that slides into tight spots, making wiring fast and easy in cramped designs. This small fit cuts assembly time, keeping your costs low on tricky jobs. Plus, the solid power flow stays high, even with less space to work.

How do aerospace lugs save my budget on long-term use?

Our Aerospace-Specific Lugs fight wear with a tin coat, stretching their life and cutting your swap-out costs over time. This lasting build keeps power steady, saving you from downtime that slows output. As a result, your systems run smooth and your expenses stay down for the long haul.
