Product Description
The Burndy KA26U is a high-strength, universal terminal lug designed for heavy-duty electrical terminations in panelboards, switchgear, and industrial machinery. Engineered from 6061-T6 extruded aluminum alloy, this mechanical lug provides exceptional durability and electrical conductivity. Its compact, single-hole design is optimized for space-constrained applications where a secure, permanent connection is required.
Every KA26U is electro-tin plated to provide a low-resistance contact surface while actively preventing oxidation and corrosion. This dual-rated (AL9CU) terminal is certified for use with both copper and aluminum conductors, making it a versatile staple for any commercial or industrial electrical project.

✅ Key Features & Benefits
-
Dual-Rated Versatility: Certified for both copper and aluminum stranded conductors, preventing galvanic corrosion and providing field flexibility for mixed-metal systems.
-
Compact Footprint: The 1.47" length is ideal for tight wiring gutters and shallow panelboard interiors where horizontal space is limited.
-
Corrosion Protection: Premium tin plating ensures a long-lasting, low-resistance connection even in humid or industrial atmospheres.
-
High-Voltage Ready: While standard for 600V use, it is rated for applications up to 35kV when properly installed and insulated according to industry standards.
-
Extruded Durability: Unlike cast alternatives, the extruded body provides higher structural integrity to withstand high-clamping pressures without cracking.
