Secure Electrical Connections for Industrial Power and Control Wiring
Copper tube ring terminals are commonly used to terminate electrical conductors where a reliable bolted connection is required. The Partex COL16-12 is designed to connect a 16 mm² copper conductor to an electrical terminal fitted with an M12 stud or compatible fastening.
The tubular copper construction provides a suitable barrel for crimping the conductor, while the ring-shaped palm allows the completed termination to be secured beneath a compatible fastening. This arrangement is useful in electrical distribution equipment, industrial control cabinets, switchgear assemblies and machinery where secure cable connections are essential.
During installation, the prepared conductor is inserted into the tubular barrel and secured using an appropriately sized crimping tool and die. A correctly formed crimp provides mechanical retention and effective electrical contact between the conductor and terminal. The ring end can then be fastened to the equipment connection point using the specified tightening procedure.
The COL16-12 provides a practical cable termination solution for electrical contractors, panel manufacturers and maintenance personnel. Correct conductor preparation, compatible crimping equipment, appropriate fastening torque and suitable cable support are essential for achieving a dependable electrical connection.
