Product Overview
The CABAC CASR300/240 Copper Reducing Link is a compression connector designed to join a 300mm² copper conductor to a 240mm² copper conductor. It is used where a conductor size reduction is required while maintaining a secure, low-resistance electrical connection.
This reducing link is suitable for circular and sector stranded copper conductors and is commonly used in reducing joints, fly leads, cable tails, switchboards, distribution equipment and heavy-duty electrical installations. Correct tooling and die selection are essential to achieve the intended mechanical and electrical performance.

Product details
Copper Reducing Link
The CABAC copper reducing link range are a barrier type, so they can be used in any situation where an impermeable barrier to oils or water is required.
Note: Do not crimp close to the centre barrier or the links may shear.
