Overview

The ABB PTM 500 Aluminum Compression Pin Terminals are precision-engineered for high-strength compression connections on ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced) conductors sized 447, 500, and 600 CPT stranded, as well as 397.5 and 477 (26/7, 18/1) ACSR configurations. Manufactured by ABB Installation Products, these terminals ensure reliable, low-resistance joints in overhead power transmission and distribution systems. The PT Series design leverages aluminum for lightweight corrosion resistance while maintaining mechanical integrity under tensile loads. Compatible with installing dies 106A, 300, 426, 1-5/16, 317, and solid copper pins sized 9/16", the PTM 500 accommodates a 5-inch terminal length for secure, long-term installations. Ideal for utility, substation, and renewable energy projects requiring durable aluminum-to-aluminum or aluminum-to-copper transitions. The compression design eliminates the need for soldering or crimping tools beyond the specified dies, reducing installation time and improving consistency. ABB’s PTM 500 terminals meet utility-grade standards for conductivity and mechanical strength, ensuring compliance with ANSI C119.4 and ASTM B800 specifications. With a UNSPSC code of 39121432, these terminals are a cost-effective solution for high-current applications where weight reduction and corrosion resistance are critical.
