Why Choose the Partex PXL240-10 Copper Tube Ring Terminal?
The Partex PXL240-10 copper tube ring terminal is a professional electrical crimp lug designed for terminating 240 mm² copper conductors onto M10 studs and bolts. Part of the Partex PXL copper tube terminal range, this robust ring terminal provides a practical solution for large cable connections in industrial power distribution systems, electrical switchgear, heavy-duty machinery and commercial electrical infrastructure.
Featuring a tubular copper crimp barrel and a closed-ring mounting palm, the PXL240-10 is designed to provide a secure mechanical and electrical connection when installed using compatible crimping equipment. The barrel accommodates a correctly prepared copper conductor, while the ring palm allows the termination to be mounted onto a suitable M10 connection point. This makes the terminal particularly useful for fixed electrical connections where conductor retention and connection integrity are important.
Supplied in a convenient pack of 10 terminals, the Partex PXL240-10 is well suited to electrical contractors, switchgear manufacturers, industrial panel builders and maintenance engineers working with large copper power cables. Its combination of 240 mm² conductor compatibility, M10 stud mounting and durable copper tube construction makes it a practical component for professional electrical installation, equipment assembly and maintenance work.

Secure 240 mm² Cable Terminations for M10 Stud Connections
The Partex PXL240-10 M10 copper tube ring terminal provides a practical method of connecting a 240 mm² copper conductor to compatible stud-mounted electrical equipment. The prepared conductor is inserted into the tubular barrel and crimped using a tool and die suitable for the terminal design, conductor size and strand construction. When correctly installed, the crimped barrel provides mechanical conductor retention and an electrical connection between the cable and the terminal. The closed-ring palm can then be positioned over an M10 stud and secured using the appropriate fastening arrangement.
For dependable installation, electricians should confirm the conductor size and construction, check terminal compatibility and prepare the cable without damaging its strands. The crimping tool, die profile and crimping sequence should follow the terminal and tool manufacturers' instructions. After crimping, inspect the connection before mounting the terminal onto the M10 stud. The fixing should be tightened according to the electrical equipment manufacturer's requirements. As the PXL240-10 is uninsulated, additional insulation, protective sleeving or barriers may be required depending on the equipment and installation environment.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical switchgear and power distribution assemblies.
- Termination of 240 mm² copper conductors onto M10 studs.
