ABL Electronics Supplies, Inc. offers a broad selection of grounding solutions, with the GS-9, GSI-9, GS-8, and GSI-8 Series standing out for their reliability, conductivity, and compatibility across various industrial applications. These grounding strap products are made with precision and consistency, making them a dependable choice for companies that demand solid electrical performance and safety.
Grounding Strap Solutions Built for Performance
Each grounding strap in the GS and GSI series is constructed with high-conductivity copper and punched holes for secure attachment. The GS-8 and GS-9 Series are standard bare copper designs, while the GSI-8 and GSI-9 Series include insulation for added protection. These straps are commonly used in settings where electrical grounding is critical, including telecommunications equipment, control panels, vehicles, and industrial systems.
Whether used in a panel enclosure or as part of an OEM assembly, each copper grounding strap is fabricated to deliver consistent electrical connection, shielding, and current-carrying capacity. The flat braided or foil-based construction helps reduce EMI/RFI interference and improve overall grounding integrity.
Product Details and Material Options
ABL’s grounding strap designs are manufactured from copper or tinned copper for added corrosion resistance. The bare straps in the GS-8 and GS-9 Series are preferred where insulation is not required, while the GSI-8 and GSI-9 versions are chosen when added insulation is important for mechanical or environmental reasons.
Each series features:
- Flat copper braid or foil construction
- Punched or formed terminals for bolt or stud mounting
- Standard and custom lengths
- Optional insulation in various colors (GSI Series)
- High flexibility for installation in tight spaces
These electrical grounding straps can be configured to meet specific requirements, including special hole patterns, widths, and insulation types. The range of options makes them suitable for various electrical designs and installation constraints.
Applications Across Industries
These grounding straps play an essential role in protecting equipment and personnel. They are often installed in:
- Ground connections in control cabinets
- Vehicle chassis and engine grounding
- Aerospace and avionics systems
- Telecommunications towers and enclosures
- Industrial machinery and motors
The reliable conductivity of each copper grounding strap helps maintain consistent electrical potential, reduce voltage differentials, and dissipate stray currents safely.
