Why Choose the Partex CEF1618G-K 16 mm² Green Insulated Cord End Ferrule?
The Partex CEF1618G-K is a professional-grade single insulated cord end ferrule designed for terminating flexible stranded copper conductors in industrial electrical installations. Featuring a 16 mm² nominal conductor capacity, an extended 18 mm metal barrel and distinctive green insulation, this bootlace ferrule provides a practical solution for electrical control panels, power distribution equipment and industrial machinery wiring.
As part of the Partex CEF insulated cord end ferrule range, the CEF1618G-K helps consolidate individual conductor strands within a conductive metal sleeve. This supports neat, consistent cable preparation and reduces the risk of loose strands or conductor damage when making connections to compatible electrical terminal blocks.
The green insulated collar provides convenient conductor size identification, while the 18 mm barrel length is suitable for compatible terminals requiring a longer conductor insertion depth. Supplied in a generous pack of 1000, these ferrules are an excellent choice for electrical contractors, industrial panel builders, maintenance engineers and OEM equipment manufacturers undertaking high-volume wiring projects.

Reliable Extended-Barrel Termination for 16 mm² Electrical Conductors
Flexible stranded copper conductors are commonly used in industrial electrical installations because they are easier to route and terminate than rigid conductors in many applications. However, individual strands can separate or become damaged when connected directly to certain electrical terminals. The Partex CEF1618G-K 16 mm² insulated cord end ferrule helps address this by enclosing the stripped conductor strands within a conductive metal sleeve.
During installation, the conductor is stripped to the appropriate length, inserted fully into the ferrule and compressed using a compatible crimping tool. The resulting termination provides a compact conductor end for insertion into a suitable electrical terminal. The 18 mm barrel offers an extended termination length, while the green insulated collar provides a neat transition between the cable insulation and the conductive sleeve.
The Partex CEF1618G-K is particularly useful in electrical distribution cabinets, machinery control systems and industrial panel assemblies where consistent termination quality is important. Correct ferrule selection, crimping and terminal compatibility help achieve secure electrical connections and reliable long-term performance.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panels and automation cabinets.
- Power distribution boards and electrical distribution equipment.
- Motor control centres and industrial machinery wiring.
- Electrical terminals requiring extended conductor insertion lengths.
- Industrial automation and equipment control systems.
- Electrical cabinet manufacture and panel assembly.
- Building services electrical installations.
- OEM electrical equipment manufacture and production wiring.
- Electrical maintenance, servicing and refurbishment projects.
- Professional termination of 16 mm² flexible stranded copper conductors.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Partex CEF1618G-K cord end ferrule used for?
The Partex CEF1618G-K is used to terminate flexible stranded copper conductors before insertion into compatible electrical terminal blocks. It helps keep conductor strands together and provides a neat, consistent crimp termination for industrial control panels, power distribution equipment and machinery wiring.
What cable size is suitable for the Partex CEF1618G-K?
The CEF1618G-K is designed for a nominal conductor cross-section of 16 mm². It should be used with compatible flexible stranded copper conductors and an appropriately sized ferrule crimping tool.
What is the barrel length of the Partex CEF1618G-K?
The ferrule features an 18 mm metal barrel length, providing an extended crimp termination for compatible electrical terminals requiring a longer conductor insertion depth.
Why is the Partex CEF1618G-K ferrule green?
The green insulated collar provides colour-coded identification for this 16 mm² ferrule variant. Ferrule colour conventions can differ between systems, so the conductor size and product reference should always be checked when selecting a ferrule.
What is the advantage of an 18 mm barrel cord end ferrule?
An 18 mm barrel provides a longer conductive termination section than shorter ferrule variants. It is useful for compatible electrical terminals with greater insertion depths, provided the ferrule dimensions meet the terminal manufacturer's requirements.
What is the difference between a single and twin cord end ferrule?
A single cord end ferrule, such as the Partex CEF1618G-K, is designed to terminate one conductor. A twin cord end ferrule is designed to accommodate two compatible conductors within a single crimp termination.
How are Partex CEF1618G-K bootlace ferrules installed?
The conductor insulation is stripped to the appropriate length, the exposed strands are inserted fully into the ferrule barrel, and the ferrule is compressed using a compatible 16 mm² cord end ferrule crimping tool. The completed termination can then be fitted into a suitable electrical terminal according to the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
Are these ferrules suitable for industrial control panels and power distribution?
Yes. The Partex CEF1618G-K is suitable for compatible 16 mm² electrical wiring in industrial control panels, power distribution equipment, machinery and electrical cabinets where ferrule terminations are permitted by the terminal manufacturer.
How many Partex CEF1618G-K ferrules are supplied in a pack?
This product is supplied as a pack of 1000 green insulated 16 mm² single cord end ferrules with an 18 mm barrel length, making it suitable for industrial panel builders, electrical contractors and high-volume wiring operations.
