Battery Clamps

Battery clamps provide a temporary connection to a vehicle's battery terminals for jump-starting, charging, or testing purposes. In mining and fleet operations, quality heavy-duty battery clamps are an essential workshop and field tool — capable of handling the high current draw of diesel engine starter motors without overheating, and designed for secure attachment to battery posts across the range of battery sizes and terminal configurations found in modern mining vehicles and equipment.

Heavy-duty battery clamps for mining and commercial vehicle use must be rated for the high cranking current requirements of large diesel engines — clamps designed for light automotive use are inadequate for this application and present a fire risk if used beyond their current rating. Quality jump-start clamps use fully insulated handles, heavy-gauge copper or copper-clad conductors, and positive-engagement jaw designs that maintain secure battery post contact under the vibration and cable movement that occurs during jump-starting operations.

Minespec NSW stocks professional-grade battery clamps for workshop and field use in mining and heavy vehicle applications. Our clamp range is selected for the current ratings and construction quality required for safe, reliable use on mining fleet vehicles.
