What is the Wago 2231-1608?
Male connector, 2231 Series, Push-in CAGE CLAMP®
Our male connector (item number 2231-1608) ensures effortless electrical installations. Ensure that the strip lengths are between 11 and 12 mm when connecting conductors to this male connector. This product features one conductor terminal and utilizes Push-in CAGE CLAMP®. Our Push-in CAGE CLAMP® is a universal, maintenance-free connection solution for all conductor types, featuring a winning design: both solid and fine-stranded conductors with ferrules can be directly inserted without the need for tools or any preparation, such as crimping the ferrule. The dimensions are (43.2 x 11.5 x 30.6) mm (width x height x depth). Depending on the type of conductor, this male connector is suitable for conductor cross sections ranging from 0.2 mm² to 2.5 mm².
The contact surface is coated with tin.
