Why Choose the Partex PXL2.5-6 Copper Tube Ring Terminal?

The Partex PXL2.5-6 Copper Tube Ring Terminal is a medium-duty, uninsulated electrical crimp lug designed for terminating 2.5 mm² copper conductors onto M6 studs and bolts. Manufactured from high-conductivity copper with a bright electro-tinned finish, this professional ring terminal provides a reliable connection for electrical panels, control equipment, power distribution assemblies and industrial wiring installations.

Part of the Partex PXL copper tube terminal range, the PXL2.5-6 features a bell-mouth barrel entry that makes conductor insertion easier during cable preparation. An integrated inspection hole allows installers to check that the conductor is correctly positioned before crimping, helping improve consistency and reduce termination errors. The closed-ring palm provides a secure mounting arrangement when fastened to a compatible M6 connection point.

Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 terminals, the Partex PXL2.5-6 is particularly suitable for electricians, control panel manufacturers, electrical contractors and maintenance engineers carrying out repeated cable terminations. Its compact dimensions, durable copper construction and corrosion-resistant tin-plated finish make it a practical choice for professional electrical assembly and installation work.

Key Advantages

  • Designed for 2.5 mm² copper conductors requiring a secure crimped termination.
  • M6 stud compatibility for electrical terminals, busbars and equipment connection points.
  • High-conductivity copper construction supports dependable electrical performance.
  • Bright electro-tinned finish helps protect the copper surface against oxidation and corrosion.
  • Bell-mouth barrel entry facilitates straightforward conductor insertion.
  • Inspection hole enables visual checking of conductor positioning before crimping.
  • Closed-ring design provides secure retention beneath a correctly tightened stud or bolt.
  • Compact medium-duty construction suitable for electrical control and distribution equipment.
  • Pack of 100 supports efficient stock management and repetitive panel-building work.

Secure Crimp Connections for Electrical Panels and Industrial Wiring

The Partex PXL2.5-6 M6 copper tube terminal is designed to provide a practical method of connecting copper conductors to stud-mounted electrical equipment. Its tubular barrel accommodates a correctly prepared 2.5 mm² conductor, while the bell-mouth opening assists cable insertion. Before crimping, the inspection hole allows the installer to verify that the conductor has been inserted to the appropriate position. When compressed using a compatible crimping tool and die, the barrel forms a secure mechanical and electrical connection with the conductor.

For reliable installation, select the terminal according to the conductor cross-sectional area and stud size, strip the insulation to the appropriate length and use a crimping tool intended for the terminal type. After crimping, inspect the termination and secure the ring palm to the M6 connection point using the equipment manufacturer's specified tightening method. Because the PXL2.5-6 is uninsulated, additional insulation or protection may be required depending on the electrical installation and enclosure design.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial electrical control panel manufacturing.
  • Termination of 2.5 mm² copper conductors onto M6 studs.
  • Electrical distribution boards and switchgear assemblies.
  • Motor control panels and automation equipment.
  • Machinery wiring and industrial equipment connections.
  • Busbar and stud-mounted electrical connections.
  • Commercial electrical installation and maintenance work.
  • OEM electrical equipment production and wiring assemblies.
  • Repair and replacement of existing copper ring terminal connections.
