Screw terminal rail connector STB 16 Al/Cu 87110 SIMBLOCK, blue 81000003

SIMBLOCK Busbar Connectors – Reliability and Safety of Al/Cu Connections

The STB 16 threaded busbar connector is part of the SIMBLOCK series, designed for connecting aluminum and copper wires. This product is dedicated to both professional installers and end-users where a secure and durable electrical connection is crucial. Made of high-quality materials, it provides stability and safety in various applications – from construction, through industrial automation, to photovoltaic installations.

Design and Application

The STB 16 connector allows connection of wires with a cross-section of up to 16 mm², making it ideal for circuits with medium load. The two-track mounting system guarantees a solid hold of the wires, minimizing the risk of loosening the connection during operation. The blue color of the housing facilitates identification and segregation in the installation, especially when running many wires. The use of threaded mounting ensures a firm clamping of the wire, and the special ribbing of the body effectively dissipates heat generated during current flow. This translates into a longer service life of the connector and increased safety of use.

Advantages in Practice

• Versatility: The ability to connect aluminum and copper wires eliminates the need for additional adapters or transition connectors.
• Safety: Solid construction and precise workmanship guarantee a stable connection, resistant to vibrations and temperature changes.
• Easy Installation: Threaded mounting and intuitive design facilitate quick and trouble-free installation, saving installers time.
• Effective Heat Dissipation: The special body design provides effective heat dissipation, minimizing the risk of overheating and extending the life of the connection.
• Durability: High-quality materials and solid construction ensure long-term reliability even in harsh working conditions.
• Compatibility: The connector is designed for mounting on a standard TS 35 mm rail, ensuring compatibility with most electrical distribution boards available on the market.
• Touch Protection: The shape of the housing is designed to minimize the risk of accidental contact with live parts during installation and operation.
