Terminal Tubular Sofamel 16 mm² M8 T-16/8
Modelo: T-16/8- Sku: SOFAACC027
- Vendor: Sofamel
Specifications
Product Description
The Sofamel Tubular Terminal 16 mm² M8 T-16/8 is designed to professionally terminate 16 mm² copper conductors that need to be fixed to bars or terminals using M8 screws. Its electrolytic copper body and tinned finish provide very low contact resistance and durable protection against corrosion, making it especially suitable for power applications and demanding environments. The inspection hole facilitates verification of full conductor insertion before crimping, increasing assembly reliability and consistency on site.
Main Features
- Cable cross-section: 16 mm² (flexible or rigid copper).
- Mounting hole: M8 compatible with standard bolts/screws.
- Base material: electrolytic copper with tin coating.
- Tubular design with large contact surface and low voltage drop.
- Inspection hole for visual assembly check.
- Complies with IEC 61238-1-1 for compression joints.
Advantages or Benefits
- Stable and efficient electrical connections, with less heating under load.
- Greater resistance to humid, saline, or vibrating environments thanks to tinning.
- Quick assembly with standard crimping tools; speeds up installations and reduces failures.
- Mechanical robustness suitable for panels, machinery, and industrial vehicles.
- Longevity in energy systems: inverters, chargers, battery banks, and DC/AC distribution.
Purpose or Applications
Recommended for power connections in distribution panels, busbars, protections and contactors, connections in 24/48 V battery banks, solar inverters, regulators, UPS, and industrial equipment. Excellent option for marine and mobile applications where a M8 16 mm² terminal provides safety and consistency.
