C-sleeves for Cu conductors
Reliable branching and splicing for earthing and bonding.
Elpress C-sleeves are a patented series of branch sleeves for Cu conductors from 6โ300 mmยฒ. Developed for safe and reliable splicing of Cu earth lines, they provide a durable solution for demanding earthing and bonding applications.
Secure branching for earthing systems that cannot be left to chance.
In earthing and bonding, the connection is never a detail. It is the foundation of long-term electrical safety, performance, and reliability.
Elpress C-sleeves are developed for branching and splicing Cu earth lines, with a patented design, a broad dimensional program, and a system-based approach where sleeve, tool, and die are matched for a controlled and assured result. The range includes nine variants covering conductor sizes from 6 to 300 mmยฒ.
Standards
Safety is our top priority, which is why all our sleeves goes through rigorous short-circuit testing in accordance with IEC 61238-1 standards, providing you with peace of mind. And that’s not all – our commitment to quality and the environment is evident through our ISO14001 and ISO9001 certifications.

Look at the marking! Elpress logotype is included on the marking, also the die number. The other side of the C sleeve is marked with the size of the Cu wire that fits and the total area. When an adequate crimping is done with the right tool, Elpress’ crimping dies make an indent on the sleeve so that all connections can be checked afterwards. In the tools, there is a built-in full closure system that ensures that the entire crimping process is completed – a prerequisite for professional and quality-assured work.
Crafted from premium copper and tin-plated for enhanced durability and conductivity, Elpress C-sleeves are built to last. Plus, with the ability to front feed all branches, you’ll experience unparalleled convenience and efficiency in your installations.
System Elpress matters.
A system solution – not just a connector.
C-sleeves are not presented as a loose component. They are part of System Elpress thinking: the sleeve is used together with the correct tooling system and by a trained operator for a qualitative result and assured quality.
When specifying C-sleeves, the sleeve itself is only one part of the answer. The correct result depends on choosing the right sleeve, the correct tool, and the correct die combination. That is why Elpress approaches C-sleeves through System Elpress logic: a matched crimping solution designed to support quality, repeatability, and confidence in the field.

Proven in demanding
earthing infrastructure
Elpress C-sleeves are not only a catalogue product. They are used in demanding, real-world earthing projects. In the Electricon case connected to Viking Link, Electricon used approximately 10,000 C-sleeves and cable lugs in various sizes as part of comprehensive earthing and equalisation work. The case also highlights reliable deliveries and dependable tool performance from Elpress throughout the project.
EPD-certified C-sleeves for projects with environmental requirements
Sustainability and EPD
Elpress C-sleeves are EPD certified. This provides documented environmental performance and greater transparency regarding product impact across the life cycle. For customers working in projects where sustainability requirements matter, this creates a stronger basis for specification and decision-making.
Your Guide to the perfect crimp.
Elpress Tool Chart App
To get Secure Connections we have developed Elpress Tool Chart App.
When you follow our guide. the result of the crimp will be the best there is. Secure, sustainable and safe.
To make sleeve, die, and tool selection easier in daily work, Elpress Tool Chart App provides digital access to tooling guidance. According to the app descriptions, it helps users find the correct dies, matrixes, and punches for the Elpress tooling system and covers the Elpress 250- and 1300-system, including C-sleeves.
