Overview

The NSI Industries AL500N-NT is a double-hole narrow aluminum compression lug designed for high-current electrical connections up to 500 MCM. Constructed from 6061T-6 aluminum alloy with a tin-plated finish, it ensures low contact resistance and corrosion resistance in harsh environments. This UL 486A/B and cULus listed connector is rated for 600V (2000V max per UL486B) and 90°C temperature operation, making it suitable for industrial and utility applications. Key features include a double-hole mounting design with 1/2" stud holes and NEMA-standard 1.75" hole spacing for secure, turn-prevent connections. The color-coded barrel markings (Pink) and Panduit die index (P99) simplify crimp die selection for proper installation. Compatible with both copper and aluminum conductors, the AL500N-NT is optimized for use with NSI N1240 or N121D crimping tools. Its enclosed barrel design inhibits corrosion and ensures reliable current transfer in demanding electrical infrastructure projects.
