Terminals

Termate’s stud type terminal ranges have been core products ever since the inception of the company. The ranges cover stud sizes from M4 up to M12 with fixing bases of 11 mm² through to 50 mm².

Accessories including mounting rail, covers, links and terminal markers allow the easy creation of terminal assemblies.

The KM motor terminal block range was discontinued on the 1st January 2022. We continue to manufacture and distribute our heavy-duty study-type terminals, as well as single and twin interlocking stud-type terminals, as they are in no way affected by these changes.

Methods of Terminating Connections

Each stud provides a bolting medium for two or more cables. This method of connection is particularly suitable where resistance to vibration is important.
