Heavy-duty cable lugs
for strong connections.
Cable lugs –
the professional
Connection technology.
Cable lugs are among the most commonly used connecting elements in electrical engineering. They enable a reliable and permanently secure connection of cables with electrical systems and components. Their stable tubular design and the possibility of precise crimping make them ideal for applications with high currents and mechanical stress.
At Püplichhuisen, you will find tubular cable lugs and matching connectors in a variety of designs, standards and specifications.
Benefits of crimp terminals.
- Designed for high currents and large conductor cross-sections
- Secure and durable connection technology through force-fit pressing
- Ideal for fine-stranded and multi-stranded conductors
- Robust construction from high-quality copper, tin-plated for optimal corrosion protection
Variations of
Tubular cable lugs and connectors.
What are they?
Tubular cable lug
Standard version.
Available in a straight version and an angled version, depending on the space available in the control cabinet or machine.
Straight versions are suitable for standard applications, whilst angled versions make connection easier in confined spaces.
Crimped cable lug
according to DIN 46235.
These standardised cable lugs are made from copper tubing and electro-tinned. They are suitable for all conductor classes and are characterised by particularly high conductivity and reliability.
- Conductor cross-sections: 6–1000 mm²
- With embossed cross-sectional data for simple process control
Ring terminal for
multi-strand cable.
Specially designed for fine-stranded conductors (Classes 5 and 6), these cable lugs adapt perfectly to the high flexibility of the conductors.
They enable a secure crimp connection without breaking the wires and ensure optimum contact.
Connector.
As well as tubular cable lugs, Püplichhuisen also supplies tubular connectors for joining or extending cables.
- Butt connectors for cable extensions
- Parallel connector for parallel conductor connections
All connectors are made of copper and are tin-plated to ensure conductivity and corrosion resistance.
Special versions.
For specific requirements, Püplichhuisen also offers bespoke tubular cable lugs – for example, in special dimensions, materials or shapes.
This makes it possible to implement bespoke solutions for demanding applications.
Suitable processing tools
for tubular cable lugs.
The processing of tubular cable lugs involves a number of steps, which are carried out using different tools depending on the requirements:
- Cutting the cables to the required length
- Stripping the conductor ends for a clean contact surface
- Crimping cable lugs to ensure a secure, long-lasting connection
These processes can be carried out using hand tools, hydraulic tools or automated solutions for high-volume production. At Püplichhuisen, you can obtain not only tubular cable lugs but also the appropriate processing tools – we’ll advise you on your selection and offer the suitable systems as part of the package.

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions about
Tubular cable lugs and connectors.
What is the difference between tubular cable lugs and crimp cable lugs?
Crimp terminals are made from copper tubing and are particularly suitable for large conductor cross-sections and high currents. Stamped and soldered lug terminals are designed for small to medium cross-sections.
What types of crimping are there for tubular cable lugs?
Depending on the standard and manufacturer, different pressing types are used. It is important to use a suitable pressing tool to ensure compliance with the standard.
Can tubular cable lugs also be used with flexible conductors?
Yes, however, for stranded conductors, special tubular cable lugs for these conductor classes should be used to avoid wire breakage.
How do I identify the correct dimension of a tube terminal?
The cable lugs are embossed with cross-section information and, in some cases, manufacturer's marks. These aid in selection and quality control of the processing.
Are there special cable lugs available?
Yes, special shapes are available for specific applications, for example with special angles, larger bores or special surface treatments.
