Why Choose the Partex COL25-5 Copper Tube Ring Terminal?
The Partex COL25-5 is a professional 25 mm² copper tube ring terminal designed for terminating electrical conductors onto equipment fitted with an M5 stud or bolt connection. Featuring a tubular copper barrel and ring-shaped fixing end, this terminal provides a practical solution for creating secure, mechanically fastened electrical connections in industrial control panels, electrical distribution assemblies, machinery and other professional electrical installations.
Designed for use with appropriately sized 25 mm² conductors, the Partex COL25-5 combines a crimp-style cable connection with an M5 ring fixing. The closed ring design allows the terminal to be retained beneath suitable fastening hardware, helping provide a mechanically secure connection when correctly crimped and installed. Its copper construction makes it suitable for electrical applications requiring a conductive cable termination component selected to match the conductor and equipment connection.
Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 terminals, the Partex COL25-5 is particularly useful for electrical contractors, control panel manufacturers, OEM machinery builders and industrial maintenance departments carrying out repeated cable termination work. The pack quantity supports efficient component stocking and consistent installation practices across electrical assembly, equipment manufacturing and maintenance projects.

Copper Tube Ring Terminals for Secure Electrical Cable Connections
Copper tube ring terminals are commonly used in electrical installations where conductors must be connected to equipment through mechanically fastened electrical connections. The Partex COL25-5 combines a 25 mm² conductor termination with an M5 ring fixing, providing a connection component for electrical assemblies where both dimensions are compatible with the equipment design. Correctly selected and installed ring terminals help create consistent connections between electrical cables and suitable equipment connection points.
In industrial automation and power distribution applications, conductors may need to be connected to terminal studs, electrical equipment posts or other bolted connection points. The ring-shaped fixing end provides a closed aperture through which the fastening stud or bolt passes. Unlike an open-ended fork terminal, the ring connection cannot be lifted away from an intact fastening point without first removing the retaining hardware. This makes ring terminals useful where a securely retained cable connection is required.
Correct crimping is essential to the performance of a copper tube ring terminal. The conductor should be prepared to the appropriate stripping length and inserted into the terminal barrel before crimping with a suitable tool and die combination. The finished termination should be inspected for correct conductor insertion, crimp quality and mechanical security. Where required by the installation, suitable insulation or protective sleeving should also be fitted.
The completed ring connection should be positioned on a compatible M5 stud or bolt and secured using the equipment manufacturer's specified fastening hardware and tightening torque. Particular attention is required when terminating a 25 mm² conductor onto an M5 connection point. The conductor cross-section and stud size alone do not establish the permissible current rating, mechanical suitability or electrical performance of the complete connection. The equipment terminal rating, contact arrangement, electrical loading, conductor construction and installation conditions must all be verified before use.
The pack of 100 makes the Partex COL25-5 convenient for electrical panel manufacturers, industrial maintenance teams and cable assembly workshops that require a consistent supply of copper tube ring terminals for suitable applications.
