Perfect Applications

Ideal for:

• Aluminum Cable Installations - Service entrances, feeder runs, and branch circuit applications requiring reliable connections
• Steel Cable Applications - Armored cable terminations, MC cable connections, and flexible conduit transitions
• Concrete Pour Applications - Underground installations, foundation work, and concrete-embedded electrical systems
• Commercial Construction - Office buildings, retail spaces, and institutional facilities requiring professional-grade connections
• Industrial Installations - Manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and processing plants with demanding environmental conditions
• Residential Service Work - Main service connections, subpanel feeds, and heavy appliance circuits
• Outdoor Applications - Weather-resistant installations requiring corrosion protection and moisture sealing
• Renovation Projects - Retrofit installations where reliable cable securing is essential for code compliance

Saddle-Type Connector Advantage

Arlington's saddle-type design distributes clamping pressure evenly around the cable circumference, preventing the cable damage and stress concentration that can occur with traditional compression-style connectors, while the spring set screw maintains consistent tension over time.
