2 hole lug In addition to the popular, single-hole power lugs available from ITC, type 39CL-D color-coded compression lugs for power cables have an extra long barrel to ensure maximum mechanical resistance to pull-out force, as well as two fixing holes, making them ideal for installations where high reliability of connection is a must. They are available for standard stranded cables 8AWG to 750MCM, with various sizes of mounting holes.

Made of annealed electrolytic copper, these are identified by multiple colour rings on the barrel, as well as the clear indication of the size. Crimping of small sizes can be done with a mechanical tool, while for larger sizes (generally larger than 1/0 AWG) the use of a hydraulic compression crimper is recommended.

All ITC color-coded compression lugs carry UL certification.
