Bus Bar Mounted PCB Lugs

 

SMT & Through Hole Bus Bar Mounts 65-115 amps continuous.

Also for Any length Zero Ohm Shunts and Jumpers.

 

Suitable for Any Length of Copper Bus Bar. Can accomodate any number of mounts at any interval. "Slide along and clamp" design enables maximum flexibility. Copper bus expands at the same rate as copper PCB foils to minimize warping.
