Why Choose the Partex PXL4-6 Copper Tube Ring Terminal?
The Partex PXL4-6 copper tube ring terminal is a professional, uninsulated electrical crimp terminal designed for terminating 4 mm² copper conductors onto M6 studs and bolts. Part of the Partex PXL copper tube terminal range, it offers a practical and secure connection method for electrical control panels, distribution assemblies, industrial machinery and commercial electrical installations.
Its copper tube barrel is designed to be compressed around a correctly prepared conductor using a compatible crimping tool and die. This creates a durable mechanical connection and provides a conductive path between the cable and the terminal palm. The closed-ring configuration helps retain the terminal on its mounting stud, making it particularly useful for fixed electrical connections and equipment subject to routine maintenance.
Supplied in a convenient pack of 100, the Partex PXL4-6 is well suited to electricians, industrial panel builders, electrical contractors and maintenance engineers who need consistent, repeatable cable terminations. The combination of a 4 mm² conductor capacity and M6 stud connection makes it a versatile choice for professional wiring and electrical assembly work.

Dependable 4 mm² Crimp Connections for Electrical Panels
The Partex PXL4-6 M6 ring terminal provides a straightforward way to connect a 4 mm² copper conductor to stud-mounted electrical equipment. The conductor is inserted into the tubular barrel and crimped using a tool and die suitable for the terminal design and cable size. Once crimped, the ring palm can be fitted over an M6 stud and secured using the equipment manufacturer's specified fastening arrangement.
For a dependable termination, installers should check the conductor size and construction, remove the correct length of insulation without damaging the strands, and use an approved crimping method. The completed connection should be inspected before energisation. As this is an uninsulated terminal, suitable sleeving, barriers or other protection may be necessary to meet the requirements of the equipment and electrical installation.
