Heavy Duty Seamless Corrosion Resistant Tin Plated Copper Lugs combine pure copper construction with a seamless pad to provide the ultimate performance in strength, conductivity and corrosion resistance. The lug design and features a flared and chamfered barrel to facilitate cable insertion. These lugs are sized and designed to work with flexibly stranded copper wire and cable such as welding cable, marine battery cable, UL Listed battery cables, SAE battery cables, entertainment cable, diesel locomotive cable, and other similar flexible cables. The tin plating provides corrosion resistance which is superior to bare copper lugs. Utilities, telecom and other industries using high amperage connections all use tin plated lugs and terminals for power connections. UL Listed/CSA Certified Pure OFC Copper – ETP Copper Tin Plated to Resist Corrosion Various Sizes available You choose the size and package quantity The hole sizes on the lugs are sized to fit the bolt of the same size so a 5/16 hole lug will fit a 5/16 inch bolt etc. The 5/16 lugs will also fit M8 metric as will the 3/8 lugs fit the M10 size metric bolts. Also keep in mind the sizes of cables go from smaller to larger as so: 8 AWG Smaller 6 AWG 4 AWG 2 AWG 1 AWG 1/0 AWG (0 Gauge) 2/0 AWG (00 Gauge) 3/0 AWG (000 Gauge ) 4/0 AWG (0000 Gauge) Larger A side note about copper clad aluminum cable some of you are using…If you are using cheap CCA wire (copper clad aluminum) the sizes of that aluminum cable will be larger than copper since aluminum can’t carry the same current as copper and therefor the cable size they use, while the same in name, will be larger than the copper awg size and will likely not fit in the same size lug. You’ll need a size or maybe 2 larger…just ask us and we can help you figure it out. Again, these quality lugs are designed to be used on quality copper wire only.

The battery cables meet the requirements of SAE J1127 and J378 making them ABYC and US Coast Guard approved for boat and marine use.BENEFITS OVER WELDING CABLE: Full AWG Size Copper Conductor TPE Jacket is Oil Resistant where EPDM on many welding cables is a poor insulator against oil SAE Rated for Automotive and Marine UsesBENEFITS OVER CCA POWER WIRE: Our cable is Copper…REAL COPPER but watch out for other “CCA Cable” as CCA Means Copper Clad Aluminum so you’d be using Aluminum which is a poor conductor compared to this pure copper cable! You have to use larger sizes of aluminum CCA cable, approximately 2 sizes larger to get close to the same power delivery as real copper cable! If you care about maximum power use our cable!The jacket on the cable reads as follows:BATTERYCABLESUSA.COM 2 AWG MARINE SAE J378/J1127 600V (-49C to 105C) MADE IN USABenefits: ABYC and USCG Approved for use on boats SAE J1127 Approved SAE J378 Approved TPE Jacket is Very Resistant to Oil, Water, Acid, Gas, Tears and Abrasions The Jacket Insulation Meets UL FT1 Flame Resistance Rating Annealed Electrolytic Copper with Class K (Type III) Rope Lay for flexibility FULL AWG Copper Content MADE IN THE USASpecifications: Conductor Size: 2 AWG Stranding: 665 strands of copper (30 AWG ea strand, rope lay Class K) Outside Diameter of stranding: 0.320 inches (nominal) Outside Diameter of finished cable: 0.510 inches (nominal) Amps: Rated to handle 210 amps continuous outside of engine space (178 amps continuous inside engine space) Weight: 0.302 lbs per foot Suitable Uses: Automotive Battery Cables Marine / Boat Battery Cables Solar Battery Bank Array Forklift Charging Cables Power Inverter Cables Welding Cable Leads Amplifier Wiring …and many other uses
