Copper Compression
Lugs, 30000 and 31000
Series
Data Sheet
Description
June 2012
3M™ Scotchlok™ Copper Compression Lugs are one-piece, seamless copper and
are designed to cover a wide range of conductor sizes. They are available in one-
hole, standard-barrel and one-hole and two-hole long-barrel versions:
30000 Series are one-hole, standard-barrel length lugs and are designed to cover
conductor sizes from 6 AWG through 4/0 AWG.
The 31000 Series consists of:
o
one-hole, long-barrel length lugs designed to cover conductor sizes from 2/0
AWG through 600 kcmil (MCM) and,
o
two-hole, long-barrel length lugs designed to cover conductor sizes from 2/0
AWG through 1000 kcmil (MCM)
They are designed to terminate copper conductors. Each lug is electro-tin plated to
resist electrolytic corrosion. The lugs are installed using standard industry tooling.
Chamfered ends ensure simplicity and ease of conductor insertion.

Properties
Not for specifications. Values are typical, not to be considered minimum or maximum.
Properties measured at room temperature 73°F (23°C) unless otherwise stated.
3M™ Scotchlok™ Copper Compression Lugs, 30000 and 31000 Series, when crimped
with approved die sets, can be used on cables with an operating temperature of 221
o
F
(105
o
C) and an emergency overload rating of 284
o
F (140
o
C). The lugs pass the
requirements of UL486A (Underwriters Laboratories standard for safety) and are CSA
Certified (as indicated in the above tables). The current rating of these lugs meets or
exceeds the current rating of the conductor size for which it is intended.
