Overview
Our TDE Helical Fittings are custom designed for a particular conductor range and type. All Helical Fittings are manufactured from premium material which are compatible with the materials used in the conductor/cable onto which they are applied.
This ensures maximum electrical and mechanical performance, whilst minimizing corrosion potential. Helical dead-ends are available in three materials:
Aluminum helical dead-ends: designed to carry out terminations on overhead distribution networks for AAC, AAAC and ACSR style conductors. Their single, one-piece design provides a uniform clamping load over a large cross-section of the conductor.
Galvanized steel helical dead-ends: specifically designed to be used as termination on SC/GZ style conductors.
Copper helical dead-ends: conceived to be an effective method of carrying out terminations on hard-drawn copper and copper alloy conductors.
Key Features
- Uniform grip to stop any distortion of the conductor or damage to the conductor
- Type-tested to AS 1154 at an Independent NATA certified mechanical laboratory
- Color coding to the requirements of AS 1154.3
- Easy installation by hand or live line methods, no need for any special tools

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Question: What are TE's Helical Fittings made of?
Answer: Our Helical Fittings are available in aluminum, copper and galvanized steel.
Question: For what type of conductors are the Helical Fittings made?
Answer: Our Helical Fittings (FAD) are designed to carry out terminations on overhead distribution networks for AAC, AAAC, and ACSR style conductors.
Our copper Helical Fittings (FCD) are an effective method terminating hard-drawn copper and copper alloy conductors.
Also, our galvanized steel Helical Fittings (FGD) can be used as termination on SC/GZ style conductors.
Question: How do you install the Helical Fittings?
Answer: Our Helical Fittings are easy to install manually or with live line methods. They do not require any special tools.
