Why Choose the Partex UCEF35018 Uninsulated Cord End Ferrule?
The Partex UCEF35018 is a professional uninsulated cord end ferrule designed for terminating flexible stranded copper conductors in electrical installations. Featuring a 35 mm² nominal conductor cross-section and an 18 mm metal barrel length, this ferrule provides a practical solution for preparing larger electrical conductors before connection to compatible terminal blocks, electrical distribution equipment and industrial machinery.
As part of the Partex range of electrical cable termination accessories, the UCEF35018 helps consolidate individual conductor strands into a compact, organised termination. Its uninsulated construction eliminates the need for a plastic entry collar, making it suitable for applications where the receiving terminal provides the necessary electrical insulation and protection.
The Partex UCEF35018 35 mm² cord end ferrule is particularly useful in industrial control panels, power distribution assemblies, machinery wiring and electrical equipment manufacturing. When installed using an appropriately sized crimping tool, its 18 mm barrel supports consistent conductor preparation and secure mechanical termination for compatible electrical connections.

Reliable 35 mm² Conductor Termination for Industrial Electrical Systems
Uninsulated cord end ferrules are designed to prepare flexible stranded electrical conductors for connection to compatible terminals. By enclosing individual copper strands within a crimped metal sleeve, they help maintain an organised conductor end and reduce the likelihood of loose strands interfering with adjacent electrical connections.
The Partex UCEF35018 combines a 35 mm² conductor size with an 18 mm crimp barrel, making it suitable for electrical installations where these dimensions match the conductor and receiving terminal. Its uninsulated construction is useful in applications where the terminal assembly provides the required insulation and a plastic ferrule collar is unnecessary.
For dependable installation, the conductor should be stripped to the appropriate length and inserted fully into the ferrule before crimping. A compatible crimping tool and die must be selected for the 35 mm² ferrule. The completed termination should be inspected for correct crimping and installed only in terminals approved for the conductor size, ferrule dimensions and electrical operating conditions.
