    Crimping lugs are an important part of crimping systems for power carrying conductors. Crimping lugs are designed to have efficient mechanical strength and electrical conductivity to enable them perform their function. Crimping lugs are of different types in order to be used for varied uses.

    Lugs may vary in terms of the materials used to manufacture them. There are copper ring type lugs that are made using wrought copper. These lugs may be electroplated to avoid abrasion and corrosion that can reduce the lifespan of these tools. This type of lug can be used for both commercial and industrial applications.

    The other kinds of lugs that are different mainly because of the type of materials used to manufacture are aluminium lugs. These kinds of lugs offer great conductivity when compared to the copper ring type lugs. They are also supplied with electroplating, that is usually essential in making them resistance to abrasion and corrosion. This electroplating guarantees that they last a long time.

    You can also find the pin type lugs, which are quite efficient. These lugs come with an opening similar to the other lugs but instead of the other side that will be fixed onto the device being circular, it is instead a long pin; hence, its name. These pin lugs can be found in various diameters thus enabling them to be used in different places. The pin side has to be inserted into the appropriate place unlike the other sorts of lugs such as the copper ring type, which are usually fixed around a nut. These lugs are very efficient and can stand corrosion, which makes them perfect for use in the electrical industry.

    There are also the tubular lugs that are also used quite frequently. They are the most suitable as in-line connector for wires that may have different cross sections. Manufacturers make use of electrolyte copper to make these tubular lugs, and they are coated with tin that is essential in preventing oxidation and ensuring resistance to corrosion. You can find tubular lugs available in different types and sizes to meet your varied needs.

    There are also the in line connector lugs. These lugs are extremely efficient in the fast transmission of electrical cables. These lined up connector lugs are essential given that they offer varied amounts of sealing, damage protection and strain relief.

    The other common type of crimping lug is the fork type. Just like the its name suggests, these lugs look like a fork where they should be attached, they have two extensions rather than the standard circular ring that many lugs have. These lugs are produced using the most advanced technology and are the most useful in the transition connection of circular aluminium wires in addition to copper devices of electrical equipment.

    Insulated lugs are the other kinds of lugs that you will probably find in the market. These lugs are often well recognized for their reliability and sturdiness. They are perfect for use in wiring switches to the mains. With the various kinds of crimping lugs, you will probably have some, which have crimping terminals, which are required for fastening further.
