Shear head connectors (also called mechanical shear bolt connectors) are specialized devices used to join electrical cables, particularly in medium voltage (MV) and high voltage (HV) cable jointing kits. They ensure a reliable mechanical and electrical connection without needing specialized crimping tools.

Purpose of Shear Head Connectors

• Ease of Installation: They allow quick and consistent cable jointing, especially in field conditions where hydraulic crimping may not be practical.
• Consistent Connection: They automatically apply the correct torque needed for a secure connection, ensuring repeatable, high-quality joints.
• Versatile Use: Suitable for joining aluminum to aluminum, copper to copper, or aluminum to copper conductors.
