UCEF1018 Partex uninsulated cord end ferrule, 10mm², 18mm barrel

Why Choose the Partex UCEF1018 Uninsulated Cord End Ferrule?

The Partex UCEF1018 is a professional uninsulated cord end ferrule designed for terminating flexible stranded copper conductors with a nominal cross-sectional area of 10 mm². Featuring an 18 mm metal barrel length, this ferrule provides a practical solution for preparing conductor ends for secure insertion into compatible electrical terminals in industrial control panels, machinery and electrical distribution equipment.

As part of the Partex UCEF uninsulated cord end ferrule range, the UCEF1018 helps consolidate the individual strands of a flexible conductor into a uniform termination. Its tubular metal barrel is designed to be crimped onto a correctly prepared wire end, helping prevent loose strands and supporting consistent conductor insertion into suitable screw-clamp or other approved terminal connections.

The uninsulated construction makes the UCEF1018 suitable for applications where an insulating collar is unnecessary or where electrical protection is provided by the receiving terminal and surrounding equipment. Its 10 mm² conductor capacity and 18 mm barrel make it a practical choice for professional electrical assembly, equipment manufacturing and maintenance work requiring a longer ferrule termination.

Reliable Uninsulated Conductor Termination for Industrial Electrical Systems

Uninsulated cord end ferrules provide a practical method of preparing flexible stranded conductors for electrical terminal connections. By enclosing the conductor strands within a metal barrel, a correctly crimped ferrule creates a consistent wire end that is easier to insert into a compatible terminal. This helps reduce stray strands and supports professional wiring practices in industrial electrical installations.

The Partex UCEF1018 is designed for 10 mm² stranded copper conductors and features an 18 mm barrel length. This longer barrel can be useful where the receiving terminal requires additional conductor insertion depth. The absence of an insulating collar also provides a straightforward tubular profile for applications where the terminal design accommodates an uninsulated ferrule.

For electrical engineers, panel builders and industrial maintenance teams, the UCEF1018 supports repeatable conductor preparation during installation and equipment servicing. The conductor should be stripped to the appropriate length and crimped using a suitable tool and die. Before installation, the completed ferrule must be checked for compatibility with the receiving terminal, including conductor capacity, insertion depth and electrical protection requirements.
