PXL185-10 Partex PXL copper tube ring terminal, 185mm², M10 stud, pack 10

Why Choose the Partex PXL185-10 Copper Tube Ring Terminal?

The Partex PXL185-10 is a heavy-duty copper tube ring terminal designed to provide secure electrical connections for large copper conductors in industrial power distribution, switchgear and electrical installations. Part of the Partex PXL copper tube ring terminal range, this cable lug accommodates a 185 mm² copper conductor and features an M10 stud connection for reliable bolted termination.

Manufactured from electrically conductive copper, the PXL185-10 provides a robust connection between large electrical cables and compatible bolted terminals. Its tubular barrel is designed for compression crimping, allowing a secure mechanical and electrical connection to be formed using suitable crimping tools and dies. The closed-ring connection palm provides a stable fixing point for compatible M10 terminal studs, busbars and electrical equipment.

Supplied in a convenient pack of 10 terminals, the PXL185-10 is suitable for professional electrical installers, switchboard manufacturers, panel builders and industrial maintenance engineers. Its 185 mm² conductor capacity and M10 fixing arrangement make it a practical solution for large-conductor cable terminations in industrial and commercial power distribution systems.

Secure Large-Conductor Crimp Terminations for Power Distribution

Large copper conductors require appropriately sized terminals to achieve dependable mechanical retention and electrical continuity. The Partex PXL185-10 features a tubular copper barrel designed to receive a compatible 185 mm² conductor, allowing the cable to be permanently terminated through compression crimping. This makes the terminal suitable for applications where large power cables must be connected to electrical distribution equipment or industrial switchgear.

The M10 ring connection allows the terminated conductor to be secured to compatible bolted electrical connection points. Correct cable preparation, crimping die selection, compression technique and tightening of the bolted connection are essential for reliable performance. The current-carrying capability of the completed connection depends on the cable, terminal, installation method and connected equipment, rather than the conductor size alone.

Typical Applications

• Industrial power distribution panels and switchboards.
• Low-voltage switchgear and electrical distribution assemblies.
• Busbar connections with compatible M10 fixing points.
• Industrial machinery and large electrical equipment.
• Commercial and industrial electrical installations.
• Power distribution cable terminations.
• Electrical equipment manufacturing and panel assembly.
• Industrial plant maintenance and replacement cable connections.
• Large copper conductor connections requiring a secure crimped and bolted termination.
