The WAGO CAGE CLAMP®

An Innovation... The rising cost of service calls and a company’s desire to provide more reliable products has changed the way people think about terminal blocks.

In the past, terminal blocks were often thought of as an insignificant part of the overall system, unless you were in field service. Field service technicians say that terminal blocks have always been significant since one of their fist troubleshooting steps is to “check the connections”. They also indicate that connectors are the source of almost half of all system failures.

Checking connections as part of a regular maintenance schedule was the only preventive solution to this problem – until the invention of “CAGE CLAMP®”. CAGE CLAMP® reduces wiring time, eliminates routing maintenance and provides a reliable contact – every time!
