Why Choose the Partex COL4B Copper Tube Butt Connector?

The Partex COL4B is a copper tube butt connector designed to join two compatible 4 mm² electrical conductors in a secure, inline connection. Suitable for electrical installations, control panels, industrial machinery and cable maintenance applications, this connector provides a practical method of joining conductors without using a separate terminal block or stud connection.

As part of the Partex COL copper tube terminal range, the COL4B uses a tubular copper construction designed for crimp termination. The connector allows conductors to be inserted from opposite ends and secured using an appropriately selected crimping tool and die. Its copper construction provides excellent electrical conductivity, while the crimped connection is intended to establish dependable mechanical retention and electrical continuity when correctly installed.

Designed for 4 mm² nominal conductor cross-sections, the Partex COL4B is suitable for compatible cable joining applications where an inline conductor connection is required. Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 connectors, it is particularly useful for electricians, panel builders, electrical contractors and industrial maintenance engineers carrying out repeated cable joining and electrical assembly work.

Reliable Inline Cable Connections for Electrical Installations

Copper tube butt connectors are used in electrical installations where two conductors need to be joined to form a continuous electrical connection. The Partex COL4B provides a practical method of joining compatible 4 mm² conductors using a crimped copper tube connection. Unlike ring terminals, which connect a conductor to a stud or screw, a butt connector is designed to connect one cable directly to another, making it useful for cable assembly, wiring modifications and maintenance applications.

The Partex COL copper tube connector range supports electrical panel manufacturing, industrial machinery wiring and maintenance projects requiring consistent conductor joints. For reliable installation, both conductors should be correctly stripped and inserted into the connector before crimping with a suitable tool and die. The completed connection must be insulated and protected as required by the installation, with appropriate consideration given to conductor compatibility, current-carrying requirements, mechanical strain relief and applicable electrical standards.

Typical Applications

  • Inline joining of compatible 4 mm² electrical conductors.
  • Industrial electrical control panel wiring.
  • Electrical cabinet and enclosure assembly.
  • Industrial machinery and equipment wiring.
  • OEM cable harness and electrical assembly production.
  • Motor control and automation equipment wiring.
  • Electrical cable maintenance and replacement work.
  • Industrial equipment refurbishment and wiring modifications.
  • Building services electrical installations where suitable cable joints are permitted.
  • General-purpose electrical conductor splicing using compatible crimping equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Partex COL4B used for?

The Partex COL4B is a copper tube butt connector designed to join two compatible electrical conductors in an inline connection. It is suitable for electrical control panels, industrial equipment, cable assemblies and maintenance applications where a crimped conductor joint is required.

What cable size is suitable for the Partex COL4B?

The COL4B is designed for a nominal conductor cross-section of 4 mm². Both conductors must be compatible with the connector and the selected crimping equipment. Conductor construction and installation suitability should be checked before use.

What is the difference between a butt connector and a ring terminal?

A butt connector joins two electrical conductors together in an inline arrangement, whereas a ring terminal terminates a conductor onto a threaded stud or screw connection. The Partex COL4B is intended for conductor-to-conductor joining rather than stud mounting.

How is the Partex COL4B installed?

Each conductor is prepared and inserted into the appropriate end of the copper tube connector, then secured using a compatible crimping tool and die according to the manufacturer's installation instructions. The completed joint should be checked and provided with suitable electrical insulation and mechanical protection where required.

How many Partex COL4B butt connectors are supplied in each pack?

The Partex COL4B is supplied in a pack of 100 copper tube butt connectors, making it suitable for electrical panel building, cable assembly, industrial wiring and maintenance projects requiring multiple conductor joints.
