Why Choose the Partex COL16-10/RA Right-Angle Copper Tube Terminal?
The Partex COL16-10/RA is a robust right-angle copper tube ring terminal designed for secure electrical cable termination in industrial, commercial and electrical installation applications. Suitable for 16 mm² copper conductors and featuring an M10 stud connection, this terminal provides a practical solution for connecting electrical cables to equipment terminals, busbars and bolted electrical connections where an angled cable connection is required.
Manufactured from copper, the COL16-10/RA provides excellent electrical conductivity and is designed to establish a dependable mechanical and electrical connection when installed using suitable crimping equipment. Its right-angle configuration allows the conductor to approach the mounting point at an angle, making it particularly useful where equipment layout, cable routing or available installation space makes a straight terminal less convenient.
Designed for 16 mm² electrical cables and M10 mounting studs, the Partex COL16-10/RA is supplied in a convenient pack of 100 terminals. This makes it suitable for electrical contractors, panel builders, maintenance engineers and industrial installers requiring consistent cable termination across multiple electrical connections.

Secure Right-Angle Electrical Connections for Industrial Power Wiring
Right-angle copper tube ring terminals are used to terminate electrical conductors where a secure bolted connection and an angled cable approach are required. The Partex COL16-10/RA is designed to connect a 16 mm² copper conductor to an electrical terminal fitted with an M10 stud or compatible fastening.
The right-angle construction provides an alternative connection arrangement to conventional straight copper tube terminals. This can be particularly beneficial in electrical distribution assemblies, control cabinets, switchgear and industrial machinery where cable routing must accommodate equipment positioning, neighbouring components or restricted installation space.
During installation, the prepared conductor is inserted into the tubular barrel and secured using an appropriately sized crimping tool and die. A correctly formed crimp provides mechanical retention and effective electrical contact between the conductor and terminal. The ring end can then be fastened to the equipment connection point using the specified tightening procedure.
The COL16-10/RA provides a practical cable termination solution for electrical contractors, panel manufacturers and maintenance personnel. Correct conductor preparation, compatible crimping equipment, appropriate fastening torque and suitable cable bend radius are essential for achieving a dependable electrical connection.
