Cable Lugs & Glands
Importers in Dubai

Match the lug material to the cable conductor material: copper lugs for copper cable, aluminium lugs for aluminium cable. A mismatched bimetallic connection creates a galvanic corrosion risk at the joint over time. Where copper cable must terminate onto an aluminium busbar or vice versa, use a bimetallic (copper-aluminium) transition lug designed specifically for that junction, not a standard single-material lug.

Pricing scales with conductor size range, 1.5 to 1000 sq.mm, and material. Copper lugs cost more than aluminium for the same size, and larger cross-sections cost more per piece. Brass glands price by size (20 to 75 mm) and rating, standard versus weatherproof or flameproof. Get itemized pricing against your exact cable schedule rather than a blanket per-piece estimate.

Single compression glands seal the outer cable sheath only, adequate for unarmoured cable in benign environments. Double compression glands additionally clamp the armour wires on SWA cable for a mechanically secure and properly earthed termination, required for armoured cable and any outdoor or industrial installation where cable retention and continuity matter.

Hazardous-area panel terminations need lugs with controlled barrel length, certified tightening torque, and often a heat-shrink sleeve over the crimped joint. We supply the lug with the heat-shrink and torque chart. Ex-rating belongs to the gland and enclosure, not the lug itself.
