Tubular cable lugs for railway applications

Tubular cable lugs for railway technology

Electrical connections in railway technology require tubular cable lugs that are suitable for the conductor used and the respective connection point. Otto Schoch AG offers COS-CU tubular cable lugs made of copper in various designs for this purpose. Different connection sizes are available depending on the conductor cross-section.

The range includes, amongst other things, tubular cable lugs for conductor cross-sections of 0.5–1.5 mm², 1.5–2.5 mm² and 4–6 mm². This allows the appropriate design to be selected based on the conductor cross-section and the required connection size.

What to look out for when choosing uninsulated tubular cable lugs for railway applications

When selecting an uninsulated tubular cable lug, the conductor cross-section and the terminal size are the most important factors. The material and the appropriate crimping tool must also be taken into account to ensure the cable lug can be fitted correctly.

COS-CU cable lugs for railway applications

The COS-CU tubular cable lugs from Otto Schoch AG are made of copper and are supplied uninsulated. They are available in various combinations of conductor cross-section and terminal size, thus enabling a specific selection for the respective application.

Ensure that the cable lug is suitable for the conductor cross-section and the intended connection point. To ensure a reliable connection, the manufacturer’s instructions regarding installation and the appropriate crimping tool must also be followed.

Selecting tubular cable lugs for rail applications by conductor cross-section

The tubular cable lugs available for railway applications differ, amongst other things, in terms of their conductor cross-section. The range includes, for example, COS-CU versions for 0.5–1.5 mm², 1.5–2.5 mm² and 4–6 mm².

There are also various options available in terms of connection sizes. For a conductor cross-section of 4–6 mm², for example, versions with connection sizes of M4, M5, M6, M8 and M10 are available. Which variant is suitable depends on the dimensions of the conductor and the connection point.

Tubular cable lugs for other applications

In addition to tubular cable lugs for railway technology, Otto Schoch AG offers further uninsulated versions for various areas of application. These include, for example, tubular cable lugs for switchgear construction as well as versions compliant with DIN 46235. You will find the appropriate range for other applications in the parent category.
