For cable-to-cable X-style connections at power substations and other commercial and industrial sites, there's never been a faster or easier way to make a reliable CADWELD® connection. This two-piece mold lets you make connections in a trench in about half the time it would take with compression connectors or other exothermic products - and at a fraction of the cost.

Features

• Ergonomic two-piece molds use standard L160 and L159 handle clamps - the same clamps you use with other CADWELD molds
• Saves labor costs - X-style connection can be made by one person in about 1 minute - much faster than other methods
• Costs less than other models, thanks to innovative design techniques and advanced manufacturing technology
• Simple to use - operates just like an XA-style mold, but there's no need to cut the cable!
• Easy cable alignment
• Also available in "smokeless" CADWELD® EXOLON model
   
• Wear plate option now available for XBQ2Q2Q and XBQ2G2G molds!
