Why Choose the Partex CT50 Copper Tube Terminal Crimp Tool?

The Partex CT50 is a specialist copper tube terminal crimping tool designed for terminating compatible copper tube cable lugs and connectors across a nominal conductor size range of 6–50 mm². Suitable for professional electricians, electrical panel builders, industrial maintenance engineers and electrical contractors, this practical crimping tool provides a reliable method of securing copper tube terminals to appropriately sized electrical conductors.

Correctly crimped cable terminals are essential for establishing secure electrical connections in control panels, switchgear, distribution boards and industrial machinery. The Partex CT50 crimp tool is designed to apply compression to compatible copper tube terminals, helping create a mechanically secure connection between the conductor and terminal barrel. When used with the correct crimping profile and suitable cable terminals, the tool supports consistent electrical cable termination and professional installation practices.

With a 6–50 mm² crimping capacity, the CT50 covers a useful range of copper conductor sizes commonly encountered in industrial electrical installations and power distribution equipment. It is particularly suitable for installers working with compatible copper tube ring terminals and cable connectors. The CT50 offers a dedicated solution for cable lug installation, equipment assembly and maintenance work where correctly formed compression crimps are required.

Reliable Copper Tube Terminal Crimping for Professional Electrical Installations

Compression crimping is a widely used method of attaching copper tube terminals to electrical conductors. The Partex CT50 is designed for crimping compatible copper tube cable terminals across the 6–50 mm² conductor range, making it suitable for a variety of electrical installation and equipment assembly tasks. During crimping, controlled pressure is applied to the terminal barrel around the inserted conductor, helping establish electrical contact and mechanical retention.

Correct tool selection is particularly important when installing copper tube terminals because the crimp profile must match the terminal design, barrel dimensions and conductor size. A properly formed crimp helps maintain a dependable electrical connection, while an incorrectly selected tool or crimping profile may damage the terminal or produce an inadequate termination. The CT50 should therefore be used only with terminal and conductor combinations confirmed as compatible with its crimping system.

Before crimping, the conductor should be stripped to the appropriate length without damaging the copper strands. The conductor must then be fully inserted into the selected terminal barrel and crimped according to the relevant tool and terminal manufacturer's instructions. The completed crimp should be inspected for correct compression, conductor retention and visible damage. Where the terminal is subsequently attached to a stud, busbar or equipment connection point, the appropriate fastening procedure must also be followed. The 6–50 mm² capacity describes the tool's nominal conductor size range and does not independently establish compatibility with every copper tube terminal of those sizes.

Typical Applications

  • Crimping compatible copper tube ring terminals.
  • Installing suitable copper tube cable lugs and connectors.
  • Electrical control panel manufacturing and assembly.
  • Industrial switchgear and distribution board installations.
  • Motor control centres and industrial machinery connections.
  • Electrical cable termination in commercial installations.
  • Power distribution equipment assembly and maintenance.
  • OEM electrical equipment and control cabinet manufacturing.
  • Industrial electrical repairs and cable replacement work.
  • Workshop preparation of copper cable termination assemblies.
  • Professional electrical contracting and maintenance applications.
