Why Choose the Partex RR84/RA Red Ring Terminal?
The Partex RR84/RA is a professional red PVC insulated right-angled ring terminal designed for terminating copper conductors onto M8 studs, screws and terminal posts. Featuring an approximately 8.4 mm fixing hole, this pre-insulated crimp terminal provides a secure mechanical connection for electrical control panels, industrial machinery and equipment wiring.
Designed for 0.5–1.5 mm² stranded copper conductors, the RR84/RA combines a crimp termination with a right-angled ring configuration. This allows the cable to approach the fixing point at an angle, making the terminal particularly useful where cable routing, connection orientation or available installation space requires a right-angled termination.
The terminal features red PVC insulation around the crimp barrel, helping provide electrical insulation and visual identification. Its copper terminal construction supports effective electrical conductivity, while the closed-ring design helps retain the connection securely once the appropriate M8 fixing has been tightened.
Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 terminals, the Partex RR84/RA is suitable for electricians, panel builders, equipment manufacturers and industrial maintenance engineers requiring dependable insulated crimp connections.

Reliable Right-Angled Ring Terminations for Electrical Installations
Ring terminals are widely used in electrical installations because their closed-ring design provides a mechanically secure connection to a threaded stud or screw. Unlike open-ended terminal configurations, a ring terminal remains captured by the fixing until the screw or nut is removed. The Partex RR84/RA combines this connection style with a right-angled design, allowing conductors to be routed conveniently in equipment where straight terminal entry may be less practical.
The RR84/RA is designed for 0.5–1.5 mm² stranded copper conductors and features red PVC insulation around the crimp barrel. The insulation helps cover the conductor termination area, while the copper terminal provides the conductive path between the cable and the connected electrical equipment. When correctly installed, the crimp connection provides mechanical retention and electrical continuity without requiring soldering.
The terminal is fitted by stripping the conductor to the appropriate length, inserting it fully into the crimp barrel and using a correctly matched insulated-terminal crimping tool. After crimping, the ring is secured to a compatible M8 stud or screw using the appropriate fastening method and tightening torque specified for the equipment.
For dependable results, installers should check the conductor size, terminal condition, stud dimensions and circuit requirements before installation. Electrical current, voltage and temperature suitability should be confirmed against the applicable manufacturer's specifications and installation conditions.
