Anyone know of a product like this?

Anyone know of a product like this?

(OP)
I am searching for a screw terminal that would bind two plates together.  Something like a "lug terminal" but.. basically as in the attached image.

The inner width should be about 1/4".

Anyone know of such a product?



Green & Red are the two plates.
Grey is sort of an extrusion with threaded hole
Black is the screw

RE: Anyone know of a product like this?

Search for a "Cage Clamp".
And search for a "Split Bolt".
Google.

See if one of those is what you desire.

Looks roughly like what's on my Square-D circuit breakers where the black wire attaches.

A "cage clamp" would be great, but seems to be part of other Items.  I just want the clamps.

The pictures from Dingle are great.  The two on the left and right are IDEAL!  But again are part of their terminal blocks.  I just want the Clamps  sad

Anyone else have any ideas?  Suppliers?

RE: Anyone know of a product like this?

Thomas and Betts, Amp/Tyco, Burndy, Panduit.

Look at the lug connectors for large wires such as 2 AWG.  You get a screw, a cage clamp, and maybe one other piece.  Just use the screw and cage clamp.

Lots of sizes and variety.

they were common hardware store items back in the day,before kitchen stoves shipped with integrated cordsets.
