Hitaltech’s range of spring clamp or ‘screwless’ terminal blocks and connectors offer both manufacturers and installers a large range of benefits.

Available from 2 to 24 way in 2.54,3.5, 3.81,5.00,5.08,7.5,7.62,10.00 & 10.16mm pitch, the Hitaltech range of screwless terminal blocks and plugs suit applications where traditional terminal blocks have been used.

In these applications the tightness of the screw clamping on to the wire has been dependant on the installer, however Hitaltech’s screwless range remove this need, and the result is therefore a uniform connection across each terminal suited to applications where vibration occurs.

Another obvious benefit is a siginificant reduction in installation time as well as the possibility to use terminal blocks and connectors on a smaller pitch where space is at a premium.

The Hitaltech range of screwless terminal blocks are rated from 2A up to 57A and are available across a range of vertical, horizontal and angled connections.

The majority of the range is made up of modular pieces allowing for up to 24 ways to be produced.

The screwless terminal blocks are available on three different operating mechanisms including push button, lever and push wire.
Where push button and lever mechanisms are used, the pressing action onto the button/lever opens the clamp and the release of pressure will then close it allowing the clamp to grip onto the wire conductor.
The push wire mechanism requires the user to push a screwdriver into the terminal block therefore opening the clamp, the removal of the screwdriver will then close the clamp.
