Where the CTL6-8 Crimp Lug Is Used

A compression crimp lug terminates a single conductor end to a bolted connection point — the conductor is inserted into the barrel and a compression crimp tool closes the barrel around the conductor, making a permanent, mechanically secure, low-resistance termination. The tongue of the lug is then bolted to the connection point — a terminal block, earth bar, busbar, equipment stud, or similar — using an M8 bolt through the 8mm stud hole.

The CTL6-8 is sized for 6mm² conductor — a heavier cable size used in Australian residential and commercial wiring for high-current dedicated circuits including large air conditioning installations, sub-board feeds, electric hot water systems, and other appliance circuits where 4mm² conductors are insufficient. The 8mm stud hole suits M8 hardware — used on larger terminal blocks, heavy duty earth bars, switchboard busbars, and equipment connection points where M6 hardware is insufficient for the mechanical loading. The tinned copper construction combines the excellent conductivity of annealed copper with a tin electroplated surface that resists oxidation and maintains a clean, low-resistance contact at the bolted joint over the service life of the installation.

Crimp lugs in this range are available across a wide range of cable sizes and stud hole combinations — covering the full range of conductor sizes and connection hardware used in Australian electrical installations.

Q: What is the difference between CTL6-6 and CTL6-8?
A: Both are 6mm² tinned copper tube crimp lugs with identical barrel and cable specifications. The only difference is the stud hole — CTL6-6 has a 6mm stud hole (suits M6 bolts) and CTL6-8 has an 8mm stud hole (suits M8 bolts). Select the correct size to match the bolt or stud at the connection point.

Q: What stud or bolt size suits the CTL6-8?
A: The CTL6-8 has an 8mm stud hole, suited to M8 bolts and studs — used on larger terminal blocks, heavy duty earth bars, and switchboard busbars where M6 hardware is insufficient.

Q: Is the CTL6-8 sold individually or in a bag?
A: The CTL6-8 is sold individually.
