PXL70-12 Partex PXL copper tube ring terminal, 70mm², M12 stud, pack 30

Why Choose the Partex PXL70-12 Copper Tube Ring Terminal?

The Partex PXL70-12 copper tube ring terminal is a professional medium-duty, uninsulated electrical crimp lug designed for terminating 70 mm² copper conductors onto M12 studs and bolts. Manufactured from high-conductivity copper with a protective electro-tinned finish, this terminal provides a reliable connection solution for industrial power distribution, electrical switchgear, control equipment and heavy-duty cable installations.

Part of the Partex PXL copper tube terminal range, the PXL70-12 features a bell-mouth barrel entry to facilitate conductor insertion and an integrated inspection hole that allows installers to check cable positioning before crimping. Its closed-ring palm provides secure mechanical retention when mounted onto a compatible M12 connection point, making it suitable for fixed electrical connections in industrial and commercial equipment.

Supplied in a convenient pack of 30 terminals, the Partex PXL70-12 is a practical choice for electrical contractors, industrial panel builders, switchgear manufacturers and maintenance engineers working with larger copper cables. Combining robust copper construction, corrosion-resistant tin plating and a secure crimp termination design, it supports consistent installation quality across demanding electrical assembly projects.

Secure 70 mm² Crimp Connections for Industrial Power Distribution

The Partex PXL70-12 M12 copper tube terminal provides a practical method of connecting 70 mm² copper conductors to stud-mounted electrical equipment. The tubular barrel accommodates a correctly prepared cable, while its bell-mouth entry helps guide the conductor into position. Before crimping, the inspection hole enables the installer to verify conductor insertion. When compressed using a compatible crimping tool and die, the terminal forms a secure mechanical and electrical connection with the cable.

For reliable installation, electricians should confirm the conductor size, strand construction and M12 stud compatibility before selecting the terminal. The cable insulation should be stripped to the appropriate length without damaging the copper strands, and the lug should be crimped using the specified tool and die combination. After crimping, inspect the connection and secure the ring palm using the equipment manufacturer's recommended tightening method. Because the PXL70-12 is uninsulated, suitable insulation, sleeving or protective barriers may be required depending on the electrical installation.

Typical Applications

• Industrial electrical switchgear and power distribution assemblies.
• Termination of 70 mm² copper conductors onto M12 studs.
• Electrical distribution boards and industrial control panels.
• Heavy-duty machinery and manufacturing plant electrical installations.
• Motor control centres and industrial automation equipment.
• Busbar connections and stud-mounted terminal assemblies.
• Commercial and industrial electrical infrastructure.
• OEM electrical equipment production and cable assembly.
• Electrical maintenance, refurbishment and replacement terminations.
