Overview

The NSI Industries APS02 Aluminum Dual-Rated Split Bolt (SKU: APS02) is a high-performance, UL-486B listed connector engineered for reliable aluminum-to-copper or aluminum-to-aluminum conductor combinations in the 8 AWG to 2 AWG range. Constructed from tin-plated aluminum, this split bolt ensures superior corrosion resistance and low contact resistance, making it ideal for harsh industrial environments where moisture and oxidation are concerns. The APS02 features a robust design with a recommended torque of 40 in-lb, ensuring secure mechanical and electrical connections without the need for soldering. Its dual-rated certification allows seamless integration in mixed-metal systems, reducing inventory complexity and installation time. With a standard carton quantity of 275, this connector is optimized for high-volume applications while maintaining compliance with NEC and UL standards. Typical use cases include power distribution panels, renewable energy systems, and industrial machinery where reliable, long-term conductor splicing is critical. The APS02’s tin plating enhances conductivity and prevents galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals, a common failure point in unprotected aluminum-to-copper connections. NSI Industries, a trusted name in electrical connectors, backs this product with rigorous testing and a commitment to safety and performance.
