Why Choose the Partex CEF1518F-K 1.5 mm² Black Insulated Cord End Ferrule?
The Partex CEF1518F-K is a black single insulated cord end ferrule designed for terminating 1.5 mm² stranded electrical conductors. Featuring an 18 mm metal barrel, it provides a practical solution for preparing flexible cable ends before insertion into compatible electrical terminals in industrial control panels, electrical cabinets and machinery wiring.
The ferrule combines a tubular metal crimp barrel with a black insulating collar to support neat and consistent conductor termination. The barrel helps contain individual wire strands during crimping, while the insulating collar provides a defined transition between the cable insulation and the ferrule. Its single-conductor configuration is intended for terminating one appropriately sized flexible wire.
Supplied in a bulk pack of 1,000 pieces, the Partex CEF1518F-K is particularly suitable for electrical panel manufacturers, automation engineers, electrical contractors and maintenance professionals carrying out repetitive wiring operations. The extended barrel and insulated construction make it a useful choice where the receiving terminal is compatible with an 18 mm ferrule termination.

Consistent Crimp Termination for 1.5 mm² Flexible Electrical Conductors
Flexible stranded electrical conductors contain multiple individual wire strands that can separate when inserted directly into electrical terminals. The Partex CEF1518F-K provides a tubular metal barrel that surrounds the prepared conductor end. When crimped using a suitable ferrule tool, the barrel helps consolidate the strands into a uniform termination for insertion into a compatible electrical connection.
The 18 mm barrel length is an important consideration when selecting a ferrule for terminals with particular insertion-depth requirements. For correct installation, the conductor should be stripped to the appropriate length, inserted fully into the ferrule and crimped using a tool and crimp profile suitable for 1.5 mm² insulated cord end ferrules. The finished termination should be inspected, and the receiving terminal must accommodate the barrel length and crimped dimensions.
