Why Choose the Partex UCEF25018 Uninsulated Cord End Ferrule?
The Partex UCEF25018 is a professional uninsulated cord end ferrule designed for terminating flexible stranded electrical conductors in industrial control panels, electrical distribution equipment and machinery wiring installations. Featuring a nominal conductor cross-section of 25 mm² and an 18 mm metal barrel, this ferrule provides a practical solution for preparing larger conductor ends for connection to compatible electrical terminals.
The UCEF25018 features an uninsulated metal sleeve without a plastic entry collar. When correctly crimped onto a prepared flexible conductor using a suitable ferrule crimping tool, the sleeve consolidates the individual wire strands into a compact termination. This helps reduce stray strands and supports consistent conductor insertion into appropriately sized terminal connections.
Part of the Partex UCEF uninsulated cord end ferrule range, the UCEF25018 is suitable for electrical contractors, industrial panel builders, machine manufacturers and maintenance professionals working with larger flexible conductors. Its 25 mm² conductor capacity and 18 mm barrel length make it useful for compatible power distribution, motor control and industrial electrical equipment connections.

Professional Conductor Termination for Power Distribution and Motor Control Systems
Cord end ferrules are commonly used to prepare flexible stranded conductors for connection to compatible terminal blocks, electrical control devices and industrial equipment. Larger conductor sizes require careful termination to ensure that individual strands are properly contained and that the completed connection meets the mechanical and electrical requirements of the installation. A correctly selected and crimped ferrule provides a defined conductor end that can simplify insertion into suitable terminal connections.
The Partex UCEF25018 is designed for 25 mm² flexible stranded conductors requiring an 18 mm uninsulated barrel. It can be considered for compatible motor control equipment, power distribution assemblies and industrial electrical installations. Correct installation requires a suitable conductor stripping length, an appropriate crimping tool and a receiving terminal approved for the completed ferrule connection. The ferrule itself does not provide electrical insulation, so suitable protection must be provided by the finished installation.
