Why Choose the Partex COL10-12 Copper Tube Ring Terminal?
The Partex COL10-12 is a copper tube ring terminal designed to provide a secure electrical connection between a 10 mm² conductor and a compatible M12 stud or bolted terminal. Suitable for electrical distribution equipment, industrial control panels and machinery installations, this copper crimp terminal provides a practical solution for terminating electrical cables onto threaded connection points.
As part of the Partex COL copper tube terminal range, the COL10-12 combines conductive copper construction with a tubular crimp barrel and a closed ring connection. The barrel is designed to receive a compatible conductor and be compressed using suitable crimping equipment, while the ring end provides a secure mounting point beneath an appropriately sized fastening arrangement.
With a 10 mm² nominal conductor cross-section and an M12 stud connection, the Partex COL10-12 is useful for electrical assemblies where a relatively large mounting stud is required. Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 terminals, it is well suited to panel builders, electrical contractors, OEM equipment manufacturers and maintenance engineers undertaking repeated cable termination work.

Reliable Copper Cable Termination for Industrial Electrical Installations
Copper tube ring terminals are used where electrical conductors need to be connected to threaded terminals, busbar connection points and equipment terminals. The Partex COL10-12 provides a practical method of terminating a compatible 10 mm² conductor onto an M12 stud. Its closed ring design is particularly useful where a bolted connection is preferred over a removable fork or spade terminal, helping keep the termination positioned beneath the fastening hardware.
Correct installation is essential to achieving a reliable electrical connection. The conductor should be prepared to the appropriate stripping length, inserted fully into the terminal barrel and crimped using tooling suitable for the terminal and conductor combination. The completed ring terminal should then be mounted using compatible fastening hardware and the equipment manufacturer's specified tightening torque. Conductor construction, current-carrying requirements, insulation clearance and environmental conditions should also be considered when selecting the termination.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panels and switchgear assemblies.
- Electrical distribution equipment and bolted terminal connections.
- Busbar connections incorporating compatible M12 studs.
- Motor control equipment and industrial machinery wiring.
- Electrical cabinet and enclosure assembly.
- OEM electrical equipment manufacturing.
- Industrial automation and power distribution assemblies.
- Electrical cable harness and equipment connection work.
- Planned electrical maintenance and cable replacement projects.
- General-purpose termination of compatible 10 mm² conductors onto M12 threaded connections.
