Corning shield bond connectors are designed to make a stable, low resistance electrical connection between the shield of a communications cable and a conductor such as a strap, bar, or wire. The connector consists of four parts: lower member (base) and upper member (top) along with two securing nuts. A few versions contain a plastic shoe to aid connector insertion and to protect conductors. The base teeth are set at such an angle as to permit easy insertion under the cable shield.
