The key to Aluminum Cable Lug material selection lies in the substrate and surface treatment. High-quality copper or copper alloys are used for the Compression Cable Lug body due to their high conductivity. Electroplating or coating techniques using metals such as nickel, silver, or gold can form an oxygen-barrier film on the conductor surface. A nickel underlayer and silver coating provide strong anti-oxidation protection, while a gold coating remains the benchmark for preventing surface aging. This surface modification process delays the reaction of the metal with oxygen in the air, thereby extending the health of the conductor contact surfaces.
