Overview

The NSI Industries PT400 Stranded Bi-Metallic Pin Terminal is a high-quality, UL 486B-listed connector engineered for terminating 400 MCM stranded aluminum conductors in industrial and commercial electrical systems. This terminal is specifically designed to facilitate the termination of aluminum conductors, offering a robust solution for demanding applications. The PT400 features a tin-plated stranded copper pin, which is crucial for ensuring superior conductivity and enhanced corrosion resistance, thereby guaranteeing long-term reliability even in challenging environmental conditions. To further enhance performance and longevity, the connector bores are pre-coated with an effective oxide inhibitor. This coating is vital for preventing oxidation, a common issue with aluminum conductors, and for maintaining consistently low contact resistance, which is absolutely critical for reliable aluminum conductor terminations. For added safety and protection, the PT400 is supplied with an EPDM insulating cover. This cover provides essential additional protection against environmental factors such as moisture and dust, as well as safeguarding against mechanical stress. Rated for 600 volts, this terminal is suitable for applications requiring high current capacity and exceptional durability. The PT400 is a key component within NSI Industries' PT Series, a line of connectors designed for optimal performance with specific compression tools, including the N1240 crimp tool. Its carefully considered compact dimensions, featuring a pin diameter of 0.582 inches and a body length of 2.377 inches, make it an ideal choice for installations where space is limited. Common applications where the PT400 proves invaluable include power distribution panels, motor control centers, and renewable energy systems, all areas where dependable and secure aluminum conductor terminations are paramount.
