Crimp It Right
8 AWG → Die Index 21 Red
This lug crimps with any 12-ton U-groove tool using the index-21 die — ours, or your matching die: Burndy® U8CRT — Milwaukee® 49-12-U008 — ILSCO® ILD-21, or T&B® Color-Keyed® index 21. The die embosses “21” into the finished crimp for inspection.

The Copper Short Barrel One Hole Compression Lug is a tin-plated copper connector engineered for 8 AWG conductors in commercial and industrial electrical systems. This short-barrel lug features a 1/4-inch stud hole for secure attachment to terminals or busbars, a sight window for conductor insertion verification, and red color coding for quick wire size identification. The compact barrel design suits applications where space is limited while maintaining reliable electrical performance.

Cross-Reference

Equivalent to short barrel one-hole compression lugs from major manufacturers. Used in panelboard terminations, equipment grounding, and power distribution connections where 8 AWG copper conductors require secure mechanical and electrical termination.

FAQ

What crimping tool is required for this 8 AWG compression lug?

Use a calibrated compression tool with dies rated for short barrel copper lugs on 8 AWG wire. The sight window allows visual confirmation of full conductor insertion before crimping.

Is this lug suitable for 75°C or 90°C conductor ampacity?

The 90°C temperature rating supports 90°C ampacity calculations per NEC when used with compatible 90°C rated conductors and terminations. Verify system compatibility before installation.

Can this lug be used in medium voltage applications?

The 35 kV electrical rating applies to the lug's insulation properties. Actual application voltage depends on complete system design, clearances, and insulation coordination. Consult applicable codes for medium voltage installation requirements.
