KCS Pipe Terminals – a tin-free solution for electrical installations

The KCS pipe terminal is an element used to connect stranded copper wires with screw terminals. Made of un-tinned copper, it provides a solid and durable connection, especially in applications requiring high corrosion resistance. Model KCS 10-50-N/1 is designed for wires with a cross-section of 50 mm² and works with M10 screws. The "N" designation indicates the absence of a tin coating – an option dedicated to specific applications and installer preferences.

Construction and application

KCS terminals are characterized by a construction that ensures optimal fit to the wire and reliable electrical contact. The inspection hole (available in the KCS-K version) allows for visual verification of correct clamping, which increases the safety of the installation. They are widely used in switchboards, control cabinets and other electrical equipment. Thanks to their precise workmanship, these terminals minimize the risk of loosening the connection during operation.

Key features and benefits

• Un-tinned copper: Provides high electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance, especially in aggressive environments. The absence of tin may be preferred in applications where minimizing contact resistance or specific material compatibility requirements are important.
• Cross-section 50 mm² and M10 thread: Allows connection of wires with a large cross-section to screw terminals of standard size, which facilitates assembly and ensures compatibility with a wide range of devices.
• Wide selection of crimping tools: KCS terminals can be crimped with many popular tools, such as R 50, PR 50, PR 150, PR 120, PR 240, HR100-U, H120S-U, GU 120, HR 300, GU 300, GO 300 and EP 300, providing installers with great flexibility.
• Connection angle 180° (horizontal): Allows for aesthetic and functional routing of wires inside enclosures and switchboards.
• Lightweight construction: The weight of a single terminal is only 31.44 g, which makes it easier to work during the assembly of a large number of connections.
• Surface protection: The lack of coating ensures direct contact between the copper and the wire, which can be beneficial in some applications.
