Conversions Tech Copper Compression Lug – 3/0 AWG, 5/16" Stud (Non-Tinned / Bare Copper)
The Conversions Tech Copper Compression Lug is a seamless tubular, heavy-duty electrical connector engineered for 3/0 AWG copper conductors and a 5/16" stud termination. Manufactured from high-purity bare (non-tinned) copper, this lug delivers low electrical resistance, high current-carrying capacity, and dependable mechanical performance for controlled or indoor power distribution applications.
- 3/0 AWG copper conductor range for high-current cabling
- 5/16" stud ring tongue for compact, secure bolted connections
- Seamless tubular barrel for uniform crimp compression and gas-tight terminations
- Bare copper (non-tinned) finish for maximum electrical conductivity
- Rated up to 600V for AC and DC power distribution
- Designed to perform under vibration and thermal cycling when properly installed
High-Current 3/0 Copper Lug for 5/16" Stud Terminations
This 3/0 AWG copper compression lug features a seamless tubular barrel that compresses evenly around the conductor, creating a gas-tight electrical interface with minimal contact resistance and high pull-out strength. This construction ensures long-term reliability in high-current electrical systems.
The 5/16" stud interface is commonly used where a compact footprint is required, such as battery terminals, bus bars, grounding points, and distribution blocks. The non-tinned copper construction makes this lug ideal for controlled indoor or protected environments where corrosion resistance is not required.
