Product details

Screw clamp and wire preparation

The 796859-3: Strip the wire to 6-7.5 mm before insertion. The rising cage mechanism lifts the clamp as the screw is turned, allowing the stripped conductor to slide fully under the clamp. Tightening the screw to the specified torque (0.79 Nm) secures the wire without damaging it.

RoHS compliant.
