Overview

The Panduit A6-10R-C is a high-conductivity copper battery cable lug designed for secure electrical connections. It accommodates 6 AWG copper conductors and features a #10 stud hole for reliable termination. Manufactured by Panduit, this lug is tin-plated to meet ASTM Class C specifications for corrosion resistance. Its brazed seam construction prevents barrel splitting during crimping, while internal barrel serrations ensure consistent wire contact and high pullout strength, crucial for high-vibration applications. The flared barrel entry facilitates easy insertion of flexible conductors. This lug is UL and CSA rated up to 2000V per UL 486A/B with a maximum operating temperature of 302°F (150°C). The embossed wire size identification on the lug aids in proper selection. Ideal for battery terminals, power distribution, and other demanding industrial and commercial applications where dependable electrical connections are paramount. Made in the USA.
