Hi guys. Where in Denver or surrounding areas can I buy some copper 2 Awg lugs in 3/8s and 5/16s and some bus bars? Batteries arrive Monday and I dont want to wait a week for a mail delivery of these parts. Hence the need for a local vendor.
 
Why copper lugs? Use stainless.
The BUSBARS should be nickel covered copper but not the lugs.
Otherwise: amazon.com
 
When I checked my local electric supply house for my install, the copper in the size I needed was out of stock. If you do find a vendor, an old fashioned phone call will work well. When I called, the store was out of stock in any size copper flat bar I could use to make a busbar.

I was only looking for busbar which is quite common. Copper lugs or copper threaded rod is much less common.

I did get my busbars online, but amazon was pricey and not a huge selection, and went off E-Bay. product availability drove which vendor purchased from.

Good in a pinch. I bought some quality pure copper 1/0 AWG lugs from my local Napa auto parts store. With tax they were $5.25 EACH. I can get them online for about $1/ea. But Napa is the only game in my small town.
