  • Product typeElectrical Connectors
  • Handles up to 600 V for demanding circuits

  • Brazed long barrel ensures strong crimp joints
  • Tin-plated copper contact resists corrosion effectively
  • UL 467 listed for safety compliance

Burndy YAD6CM8E516 Compression Lug

This one-hole compression lug accepts 6 AWG copper wire and terminates on a 5/16 inch stud. The long barrel provides extra crimp area for a secure mechanical and electrical bond. Tin-plated copper construction resists corrosion in harsh environments. It is rated for 600 V and a maximum operating temperature of 302 degrees F.

Brazed Barrel Tin-Plated Copper Build

The brazed barrel seam prevents the connector from splitting under high pull-out force. A .4 in barrel length and .32 in outside diameter match standard crimp tooling for 6 AWG. The .55 in tongue width fits the 5/16 in stud cleanly without crowding adjacent terminals. Bare metal finish means the installer must apply heat-shrink or tape for insulation.

Upgrade from Split-Barrel or Short Lugs

This lug replaces split-barrel or short-barrel ring terminals that can loosen under vibration. The long brazed barrel is worth the step up when the connection sees heavy current cycling or mechanical stress. It is not for installers who need an insulated sleeve pre-attached or a stud size other than 5/16 in.

Questions about this item

What voltage and temperature does the 600 V / 302 °F rating actually allow in the field?

The lug is rated for 600 V maximum and 302 °F maximum operating temperature, so it suits standard 600 V circuits and environments up to that heat limit.

Will the 0.55 in tongue and 5/16 in stud fit my bus bar or terminal block?

The tongue measures 0.55 in wide and the stud hole accepts a 5/16 in bolt; verify your bus-bar slot and hardware match those dimensions before ordering.

How do I crimp the brazed long barrel correctly, and what mistake should I avoid?

Use a die matched to 6 AWG copper on the 0.4 in long brazed barrel; the common error is using an undersized die that leaves a loose crimp.
