[RE-wrenches] Intercell Connectors Lead-Plated Copper Rated @ 367 Amps battery buss bar stock

[Dana]

Hey Jay,

Depending on what you are looking for I have a stock pile of new & unused leftover lead coated copper battery buss bars from HUP Solar One battery installations for 21+ years they are all HUP's stock length. There may be a few that are longer than the stock length.
Intercell Connectors Lead-Plated Copper Rated @ 367 Amps.
I would have to go measure them. Contact me off list.

Just copper stock is not good enough necessarily...make sure it is specified for electrical current carrying.  I have seen some spectacular failures with people using plumbing pipe malled flat and drilled.  It is was too soft to handle the heat at high currents!  I do not know the exact specs, but it should be listed for that purpose....not a good application to go cheap!
