ILSTA-6-S ILSCO Aluminum Mechanical Lug #14-6 1 Port 1/4in Hole

The ILSTA-6-S is designed for aluminum conductors in the #14–#6 AWG range. ILSCO does offer dual-rated (AL/CU) lugs in other series, but this specific model is rated for aluminum. If you need a lug for copper or dual-rated use, contact us and we can recommend the right ILSCO product for your application.

Best practice for aluminum conductor terminations in Canada is to apply an anti-oxidant joint compound (such as Noalox or equivalent) before insertion to prevent oxidation and ensure a long-lasting, low-resistance connection. Some inspectors and local codes may require it — check with your authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) to confirm requirements in your area.

Torque specifications are listed on the ILSCO cut sheet for this product. You can refer directly to the ILSCO official cut sheet for the precise torque value. Proper torque is critical for aluminum terminations to avoid loose connections and overheating — always use a calibrated torque screwdriver or wrench.
