The Crimp Cable Lug 35mm2 x M8 terminates 35mm² battery cable onto an M8 terminal stud. Solar installers, homeowners, smallholdings and farms across South Africa fit lugs for battery cable on 48V lithium banks. A matched barrel and stud hole give a tight, secure joint at the battery and inverter.
Crimp Cable Lug 35mm2 x M8 Benefits
- Barrel sized for 35mm² conductor, matching our battery cable.
- M8 hole fits M8 battery and inverter terminal studs.
- Suits battery to inverter runs and parallel battery links.
Compatibility And Fit For 48V Banks
These battery lugs terminate the 35mm battery cable lengths, which ship without lugs fitted. They’re used between 48V lithium banks and 5kW or 8kW single phase hybrid inverters. Pair them with our 48V lithium ion batteries for a matched battery bank.
Browse every size in our full Cables range before you order. Matching lengths for this lug sit in the Battery Cable range. For parallel links between modules, see the 5 hole battery busbar box.
Choosing The Right M8 Lug
Check the stud size on the battery and the inverter before you order. The 35mm Battery Cable also suits M10 lugs, so the wrong hole is an easy mistake. This M8 lug won’t fit M10 or larger studs, or cable other than 35mm².
Battery cable lugs also land on the 160A battery fuse, so confirm its stud size first. Its partner, the Battery Disconnect Switch 160A, needs the same stud check. Getting both stud sizes right first saves a second order.
Crimping Guide For Clean Joints
Strip just enough insulation to fill the barrel, then crimp with a 35mm² die. A hydraulic crimper gives the even pressure this barrel size needs. Give the cable a hard tug before you bolt anything down.
Slide heat-shrink over the barrel, then bolt the lug onto the M8 stud. Heat-shrink keeps moisture and dust off the joint inside a battery cabinet. The crimping tool isn’t part of this listing, so arrange one before you start.
Best Use Cases Across South Africa
- Installers fitting battery terminal lugs in battery cabinets.
- Homeowners connecting a new 48V lithium battery.
- Smallholdings and farms expanding an existing battery bank.
A loose or badly crimped lug can run hot and cut your backup power. It suits solar installers and homeowners who need crimp lugs for every battery cabinet run. Our battery wiring and installation team fits battery systems across the Vaal Triangle and Gauteng.
