Sourcing lugs & glands into Onitsha — what buyers ask
Specification, finish, documentation and terms, answered by the works in Howrah rather than a trading desk.
Yes. A bimetallic transition lug is specifically designed with a copper barrel bonded to an aluminium barrel, or vice versa, in one factory-made joint, avoiding the galvanic corrosion risk of directly bolting copper cable onto an aluminium busbar or terminal. Specify these explicitly wherever your project has a copper-to-aluminium termination point.
There's no single verified leader in this category either. Lug and gland manufacture spreads across several Indian electrical-component hubs. Buyers shortlist on IS 8309 / IS 12943 compliance, verified conductivity and plating quality, and direct-factory supply, not marketing claims. Vajra International manufactures copper and aluminium lugs and brass cable glands in Howrah to IS 8309, IS 12943 and IEC 62444.
Cable lugs (copper/aluminium terminal connectors) typically export under HS 85369090 (other electrical apparatus for switching/connecting circuits) or 74199990 for some copper items; brass cable glands generally fall under HS 74199990 (other articles of copper/brass). Confirm the exact subheading for your specific product with your customs broker.
Cable lugs and glands fall under HSN 8536/7419 and attract 18% GST domestically. Exports are zero-rated under an LUT (no IGST) or shipped with IGST paid and refunded. An overseas buyer pays only their own country's import duty on the FOB/CIF price.
Yes. GCC oil and gas standards (Saudi, UAE specifications and similar) require Ex certificate, material composition, plating thickness, and IP-rating test reports as part of the pre-shipment dossier. We've built these documentation requirements into our QA process, so every GCC export shipment ships with a complete dossier. Your project document controller receives it before container arrival, no re-testing or delays.
