Why Choose the Partex COL70-16/RA Right-Angle Copper Tube Terminal?
The Partex COL70-16/RA is a robust 90° right-angle copper tube terminal designed to provide secure electrical connections between 70 mm² copper conductors and equipment with M16 stud connections. Suitable for industrial electrical installations, power distribution equipment and control panel assemblies, this crimp cable lug offers a practical termination solution where installation space and cable routing are important considerations.
As part of the Partex COL copper tube terminal range, the COL70-16/RA combines a tubular crimp barrel with an angled fixing palm to support dependable electrical termination. Its copper construction provides good electrical conductivity, while the right-angle configuration allows cables to be connected without requiring the same straight-line clearance as conventional straight copper tube terminals.
Designed for 70 mm² cable and M16 bolted connections, the COL70-16/RA is particularly useful in switchgear, distribution boards, industrial machinery and electrical cabinets where larger conductors must be routed efficiently. Supplied in a pack of 50 terminals, it is a convenient choice for electrical contractors, panel builders, equipment manufacturers and maintenance teams.

Reliable Right-Angle Connections for Industrial Power Cables
Copper tube cable terminals provide an effective method of connecting stranded copper conductors to electrical equipment. The Partex COL70-16/RA uses a tubular barrel to accommodate a 70 mm² conductor and a 90° angled palm to provide a bolted connection to an M16 stud. This design is particularly useful where larger power cables need to approach equipment connection points from the side.
The right-angle arrangement can help improve cable routing within distribution cabinets, electrical panels and industrial equipment enclosures. By allowing the cable to follow a more suitable installation path, it can reduce the need for tight bends near the terminal and help installers achieve a neater cable layout.
For reliable electrical performance, the terminal should be installed using a correctly matched crimping tool and die suitable for the conductor and terminal construction. The M16 bolted connection should be tightened in accordance with the connected equipment manufacturer's instructions. Correct cable preparation, conductor insertion and crimping are essential for maintaining electrical continuity and mechanical security.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical distribution boards and switchgear assemblies.
- Power distribution cabinets and electrical control panels.
- Busbar and equipment stud connections.
- Industrial machinery and manufacturing equipment.
- Motor control centres and associated power connections.
- Electrical panel building and OEM equipment assembly.
- Power cable termination in confined electrical enclosures.
- Industrial maintenance, repair and replacement of cable terminals.
- Electrical installations requiring 70 mm² copper conductors.
- Right-angle cable connections to compatible M16 fixing points.
