Why Choose the Cembre 2180620 A3-L5 90° Copper Tube Cable Lug?
The Cembre 2180620, also identified as the Cembre A3-L5, is a high-quality 90-degree copper tube cable lug designed for terminating flexible and stranded copper conductors. Its right-angle palm provides a practical connection solution where enclosure space is limited or where the cable must approach the fixing point at an angle.
Manufactured from high-purity electrolytic copper tube, this uninsulated compression lug provides excellent electrical conductivity and dependable mechanical strength. The copper body is annealed to improve ductility, allowing the terminal to withstand the substantial deformation produced during crimping while reducing the risk of cracking or material damage.
Designed for a nominal conductor size of 16 mm² and featuring an M5 fixing hole, the Cembre 2180620 is suitable for switchgear, control panels, industrial machinery and electrical distribution equipment requiring a secure right-angle bolted connection.
Key Advantages
- Practical 90-degree angled palm for confined installation spaces.
- Suitable for terminating 16 mm² copper conductors.
- M5 stud hole for secure bolted electrical connections.
- Manufactured from high-purity electrolytic copper for excellent conductivity.
- Annealed construction provides improved ductility during compression.
- Robust tube design delivers reliable resistance to vibration and conductor pull-out.
Key Features
- Cembre A-L series compression cable lug.
- Manufacturer part number: 2180620.
- Product reference: A3-L5.
- 90° angled palm configuration.
- 16 mm² nominal conductor capacity.
- M5 fixing-hole size.
- Manufactured from seamless electrolytic copper tube.
- Uninsulated design for professional crimped terminations.
Reliable Right-Angle Copper Cable Termination
Compression cable lugs create a permanent electrical and mechanical connection by compressing the lug barrel around the conductor with a correctly matched crimping die. A properly completed crimp helps minimise electrical resistance while providing dependable resistance to vibration, movement and conductor pull-out.
The angled palm of the Cembre A3-L5 allows the conductor to be routed perpendicular to the mounting surface. This configuration is particularly useful inside compact switchboards, machinery cabinets and electrical enclosures where a conventional straight cable lug may require excessive bending of the connected cable.
Typical Applications
- Electrical control panels and switchboards.
- Industrial machinery and automation systems.
- Motor control centres and distribution equipment.
- Power supplies, transformers and battery systems.
- Compact electrical cabinets with restricted cable-routing space.
- Commercial and industrial copper cable installations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Cembre 2180620 used for?
The Cembre 2180620 is used to create a crimped and bolted termination on a copper conductor where a 90-degree cable entry angle is required.
What cable size is suitable for the Cembre 2180620?
The A3-L5 cable lug is designed for a nominal copper conductor size of 16 mm².
What fixing-hole size does this cable lug have?
The terminal palm incorporates an M5 fixing hole for connection to a compatible threaded stud or bolt.
Why does the lug have a 90-degree palm?
The angled palm allows the connected cable to approach the mounting point from the side, helping simplify installation in compact panels and other areas with limited cable-bending space.
How should the Cembre 2180620 be installed?
The conductor should be correctly stripped, fully inserted into the lug barrel and compressed using a compatible professional crimping tool and die selected for the conductor and terminal size.
