Clips & Braids
Overview of Clips & Braids
Held in place by stainless steel spring clamps, braided aluminum terminal straps in 25, 50, 100, and 200 amperage ratings are available in three primary styles; ‘Single Loop’, ‘Double Loop’ and ‘Post to Post’.
Terminal Clamps
The terminal clamps are used to hold the aluminum straps in compression around the circumference of the Starbars. The aluminum strap and terminal clamp should be installed at the very end of the Starbar. There are two types of clamps:
- "M" -- which derives its name from its similarity to the letter M, and manual.
- "T" -- which is used with an expansion tool. The T type clamp is useful for installations where space is limited.
Temperature Limitation
Clamps are made from heat resistant steel and should never be operated in an ambient temperature over 500°F (260°C).
Expansion Tool
These tools are used for installation and removal of the T type clamps. Besides the standard in-line type there are two special types, a RA right angle and extended in-line type.
Identification
The stainless steel clamps are stamped with a number for easy identification and proper matching to the correct diameter Starbars. The expansion tools have the part numbers marked on the handle.
Availability
Most sizes are available from stock. Others can be shipped in one week or quicker for emergencies.
