Bimetallic lugs are specially designed with aluminum and copper conductors so that galvanic corrosion is avoided when these metals come into contact with each other. The electrical joints made between different metals will deteriorate with time and may cause overheating and loss of power without the use of these specialized lugs.
These lugs are equipped with a copper palm and an aluminum barrel to provide great conductivity while meeting high levels of mechanical strength. They are used mainly in power distribution, substations, and industrial wiring where some connections between different metals are necessary.
The use of proper crimping techniques is essential to create a strong and reliable connection, which will reduce resistance and improve electrical performance. For durable and corrosion-resistant bimetallic lugs, Pioneer Power offers trusted solutions for safe and efficient electrical terminations.
