Why Choose the Partex PXL10-10 Copper Tube Ring Terminal?
The Partex PXL10-10 is a copper tube ring terminal designed for terminating 10 mm² copper conductors onto electrical connections using an M10 stud or bolt. Supplied in a convenient pack of 100, this cable lug provides a practical solution for electrical contractors, industrial panel builders and maintenance engineers requiring secure, repeatable cable terminations.
Part of the Partex PXL copper tube terminal range, the PXL10-10 combines a tubular conductor barrel with a flat ring-type fixing palm. The conductor is inserted into the barrel and secured using a suitable crimping tool and die, creating a permanent mechanical and electrical connection when correctly installed.
The M10 ring connection enables the terminal to be secured to compatible threaded studs, terminal blocks, busbars and equipment connection points. Its copper construction provides a conductive path between the cable and the connected equipment, making it suitable for a wide variety of low-voltage power distribution, control panel and industrial electrical applications.
Key Advantages
- Designed for 10 mm² copper conductors, providing a correctly sized termination for compatible cables.
- M10 stud fixing for secure bolted electrical connections.
- Copper tube construction offers good electrical conductivity.

Reliable Copper Tube Crimp Terminations
A properly installed copper tube ring terminal provides a dependable way to connect a cable conductor to electrical equipment. The Partex PXL10-10 uses a tubular barrel to receive a 10 mm² copper conductor, while its flat ring palm provides a bolted connection to an M10 stud.
During installation, the cable insulation is stripped to the appropriate length and the conductor is fully inserted into the terminal barrel. The barrel is then compressed using a suitable crimping tool and correctly matched die. This creates a secure mechanical connection and establishes electrical contact between the conductor and the terminal.
The ring palm is positioned over the equipment stud and secured using the specified fixing hardware and tightening torque. A ring terminal is particularly useful where a retained bolted connection is preferred, as the lug cannot be lifted away from the stud without removing the fastening hardware.
Correct tooling and installation are essential. An incorrectly sized crimp die, insufficient conductor insertion or inadequate compression can produce a poor termination. Installers should follow the manufacturer's crimping instructions and the equipment manufacturer's requirements for the bolted connection.
Choosing the Correct 10 mm² M10 Ring Terminal
When selecting a cable lug, both the conductor cross-sectional area and the stud size must be considered. The Partex PXL10-10 is intended for 10 mm² conductors and M10 fixing studs. A terminal with the correct conductor barrel but the wrong fixing hole may not provide a suitable connection.
The cable conductor material and construction must also be compatible with the lug and crimping method. The PXL10-10 is a copper terminal intended for appropriate copper conductors. Aluminium conductors or mixed-metal connections require separately specified components and installation methods.
As an uninsulated ring terminal, the PXL10-10 may require suitable insulating sleeving, heat-shrink tubing or enclosure protection depending on the application. Electrical ratings and installation suitability should be determined from the manufacturer's technical documentation and the requirements of the completed electrical assembly.
