Product Overview
The CABAC CASR300/185 Copper Reducing Link is a copper compression connector used to join a 300mm² copper conductor to a 185mm² copper conductor. It is designed for electrical installations where a dependable size transition is needed between copper conductors.
This reducing link is suitable for circular and sector stranded copper conductors. It is commonly used in reducing joints, fly leads, cable tails, switchboard work and industrial distribution applications. When installed with the correct crimping tooling, it provides a permanent mechanical and electrical connection.

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.
