Overview
8WA screw terminal: Field-proven technology
Highlights
- Terminals closed at both ends eliminate the need for end plates and make the terminal robust
- The terminals are stable – and are thus ideal for using power screwdrivers
- Flexible clamps mean that terminal screws do not have to be re-tightened
Backing field-proven technology
If you use tried-and-tested screw terminals, you will find the ALPHA FIX 8WA1 terminal block a good choice. This is used mainly in switchboard and control engineering. It is insulated on two sides and enclosed at both ends. This makes the terminals stable, eliminates the need for end plates, and saves you a large number of warehousing items.
The screw terminal is also available in pre-assembled terminal blocks, allowing you to save time and money.
Secure terminals every time
The terminals are designed so that when the terminal screws are tightened, any tensile stress which occurs causes elastic deformation of the terminal bodies. This compensates for any creepage of the clamping conductor. The deformation of the thread part prevents loosening of the clamping screw – even in the event of heavy mechanical and thermal strain.
