115-2-500, Contact Rail Connector, #2-500 kcmil Cu, 115 & 119# A.R.E.A. Rail
Brand:
Connector Products (CPI)
Conductor Size: 2 - 500 MCM Cu Cable for 115 & 119 lb Rail
- No drilling in rail or need to weld conductor to the rail!
- Rail is not subjected to warping by excessive heat or to weakening by drilling
- Labor saving, installation time can take as little as 10 minutes per connection
- Fewer rail connections required due to large conductor capacity (single conductors up to 1000 kcmil, dual conductors up to 750 kcmil)
- Large conductors can be bent away from the rail after installation without the risk of damaging the connector
- The clamp is an active spring applying a consistent force on the conductor ensuring a positive connection through heat cycling and train vibration
- The J-shapred spring member of the connector helps overcoming loosening issue problems associated with harsh train vibration by flexing rather than breaking
- A static-type connection doesn't have this resiliency and could crack under prolonged vibration
- Consistent spring pressure prevents moisture and contamination from seeping into the connection
- All copper components are tin plated and steel components are galvanized
