Altech’s Eurostrips are safe, econom-
ical and meet worldwide standards.
They are a cost-effective alternative
to barrier strips that require labor-
intensive wire lugs and they reduce
the number of electrical connections
in circuits.
Eurostrips feature tubular screw
clamps, wire protectors, and are
ready for immediate wire hookup.
Eurostrips are ideal in small spaces,
which means more room for other
components or reduced enclosure
size. Free float or mount them onto
any panel. They are available in
easy-to-cut 12-pole strips or pre-cut.
Feed-Through Eurostrips are supplied
with wire protectors. Offered with
flat bases or standoff feet, they are
molded of self-extinguishing
polyamide. Custom imprinting and
marking plates are available.

EASY MOUNTING SAVES
INSTALLATION TIME
Eurostrips are mounted quickly in pan-
els. Use standard screws or mounting
pins, offered as accessories in this sec-
tion, or leave them free floating to com-
pletely eliminate mounting.
EASY
CONNECTION SAVES
MONEY
What could be easier? Simply strip the
wire insulation, insert the wire and
tighten the screw to achieve a gas-tight,
electrically efficient connection—every
time. Wire lugs are eliminated, saving
material cost and installation time.
EASY MODIFICATION REDUCES
INVENTORY
Offered in easy-to-cut 12-pole strips, they
can also be ordered precut with the required
number of poles.
Polyamide housing can
be cut with a utility knife or hacksaw,
providing flexibility to meet changing
needs. Because standard 12 pole strips
can be so easily cut to the required num-
ber of poles, stocking is simplified and
inventory is minimized.
RELIABLE CONNECTION
EVERY TIME
The basis for the Eurostrip’s reliable con-
nection is a precision machined tubular
screw clamp insert made from highly
conductive copper alloy which is nickel
plated for maximum corrosion resist-
ance. The clamping screw material is
high strength steel to
prevent screw head
breakage or thread
damage. This provides
trouble free opera-
tion. Screws are
electrogalva-
nized and bluechro-
mated to provide cor-
rosion resistance. Optional nickel plated
brass screws may be ordered for highly
corrosive environments or marine appli-
cations.
Standard Eurostrips feature stainless
steel wire protectors. Unlike wire pro-
tectors found in many competitive prod-
ucts which use copper alloy materials,
stainless steel has superior memory
characteristics. Accordingly, the wire
protector will return to its original posi-
tion even after repeated use. This
means trouble-free wire insertion and
quicker reconnections.
HOUSINGS
Eurostrip housings are injection molded
from self-extinguishing polyamide 66/6,
V-O molding material, possessing high
dielectric strength and excellent electri-
cal insulation and temperature resist-
ance. Each housing has been specially
designed to provide creepage and clear-
ance distances to achieve ratings up to
600V. Choose low profile, flat base
housings for minimum clearance appli-
cations (300V) or housings with mount-
ing feet for maximum voltage isolation
(600V).
ACCESSORIES
External jumpers bus potentials
between poles on Eurostrips, eliminat-
ing wire jumpers and reducing wiring
time. Isolation partition increases clear-
ance between adjacent poles and pro-
vides visual separation for more effi-
cient wiring. Mounting pins simplify
installation and mounting of Eurostrips.
Simply drill the mounting hole, position
and install the pin from underneath the
panel. When correct position is
reached, pin will retain terminal to
panel.
Identify circuits and reduce wiring mis-
takes with marking plates. Order plates
imprinted or blank. Position under or on
top of a Eurostrip housing.
Imprinting Eurostrips reduces wiring
errors and helps to identify circuits. Use
Imprinting to mark individual poles
when high quantities are involved or
custom imprints are required.
Eurostrips®
FEED-THROUGH FLAT BASE
Panel Mount
For wire-to-wire connections in
HVAC, appliance, equipment,
power distribution and other
industrial applications with
strict budget and space require-
ments. Easy to use double row
terminal strips are a cost-effec-
tive alternative to barrier strips
or other types of terminal
blocks. Simply strip the wire,
insert and tighten the screw.
Eurostrips feature tubular screw
clamps, with wire protectors,
and recessed metal parts for fin-
ger protection. The stainless
steel wire protectors exhibit
excellent memory and the most
effective connection.
Eurostrips described on this and
the following page are available
with a flat base for minimum
clearance applications. They can
be panel mounted or left to free
float. Offered in easy-to-cut
standard 12-pole strips, they can
also be ordered precut with the
required number of poles.
