Copper Lug for 2 Gauge Wire

This Westward lug is a copper crimp-and-solder terminal built for 2 gauge cable with a 3/8 inch stud hole. It suits automotive and heavy-duty electrical work where a straight, raised-pad-free connection is required. The two-piece pack covers a typical battery or starter cable job. cUL listing confirms it meets recognised safety standards for this component type.

Replaces Worn or Corroded Battery Terminals

Swap this in when factory lugs have oxidised, cracked or lost clamping force on the cable strands. The jump is worth it whenever a voltage drop test shows resistance at the terminal or when the original lug stud size no longer matches the replacement hardware. Corrosion-resistant copper construction restores full cross-sectional conductivity without changing cable gauge.

Crimp Then Solder for a Permanent Joint

Install by stripping the cable, crimping the barrel with a 2 gauge die, then sweating solder into the strands for a gas-tight seal. The straight barrel lays flat against the battery post or bus bar, so no bending is needed. The only common mistake is skipping the solder step, which leaves a path for moisture and eventual green rot under the crimp.

Questions about this item

What gauge wire and stud size does the 23YY96 lug accept?

The lug fits 2 ga wire and a 3/8 in stud for a straight crimp or solder connection.

How is the lug attached to the cable?

Strip the conductor, insert it into the barrel, crimp with a 2 ga die, then solder the joint for a secure bond.

When should the lug be replaced?

Replace it if the copper barrel shows corrosion, the crimp loosens, or the lug overheats during use.
