Bi-Metal Line Taps

Bi-Metal Line Taps are made of aluminum alloy with a forged bimetallic sheet that provides corrosion-resistant and high strength. It is specifically designed to connect two parallel bare conductors, which could be aluminum alloy or aluminum strengthened for the key and copper for the pick. The main components of Bi-Metal Line Taps are bolts, pressure pad and conical washer/Spring washers. It effectively engages the conductor to provide electrical connection without corrosion or overheating. Bi-Metallic Line Taps are filled with a warm compressed bi-metallic layer on the upper and lower parts of the body of the conductor, contact between the portion of copper and aluminum sealed with epoxy resin. The bottom part of the connector is threaded to provide ease of installation. The configuration lays out all the demands for bi-metal line taps for use in electrical transmission distribution systems in the exposed area.

The special construction of the bi-metal junction ensures adequate protection against electrolytic corrosion when the tap is applied in accordance with the recommended instructions. Its pressure pad ensure uniform pressure along the clamp.

The standard range of Bi-Metal Line Taps includes American Standard Line Taps, Australian Standard Line Taps, European Standard Line Taps, Middle East Standard Line taps and many other International standard line taps. Line Taps are available as per custom specification and requirements for varied industrial applications. Line Taps are manufactured from surface hardening, thread forming, turning, rolling, slotting, tapping, coating, finishing, automated inspection and more. Line Taps are available with a special type of protective coating and finishing for reliable and durable performance, aesthetic appealing and longer service life. General Coating and Plating range include Nickle plated brass, zinc, chrome, galvanizing, electro tin plating and more.
