Partex COL16-12/RA right-angle copper tube terminal for crimp termination of compatible 16 mm² electrical conductors onto M12 stud connections, supplied in a pack of 100 for industrial electrical panels, distribution equipment and machinery wiring.
£60.42
The Partex COL16-12/RA is a right-angle copper tube terminal designed to provide a secure electrical connection between a compatible 16 mm² conductor and an M12 stud or bolted terminal. Featuring an angled ring terminal configuration, this copper crimp lug offers a practical cable termination solution for industrial electrical installations, distribution equipment, control panels and machinery where connection orientation and cable routing are important considerations.
As part of the Partex COL copper tube terminal range, the COL16-12/RA combines conductive copper construction with a tubular crimp barrel and a right-angle ring connection. The tubular barrel receives the electrical conductor for crimp termination, while the angled mounting end allows the cable to approach the bolted connection from a different direction compared with a conventional straight ring terminal.
Designed for 16 mm² nominal conductor cross-sections and M12 stud connections, the Partex COL16-12/RA is suitable for electrical assemblies requiring a reliable crimped cable termination with an angled connection arrangement. Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 terminals, it provides a practical solution for electricians, electrical panel builders, OEM equipment manufacturers and industrial maintenance engineers undertaking production, installation and cable termination projects.
Right-angle copper tube terminals are useful in electrical installations where the available space, equipment arrangement or cable entry direction requires an alternative to a straight cable lug. The Partex COL16-12/RA provides a practical method of terminating a compatible 16 mm² conductor onto an M12 stud using a right-angle connection arrangement. This configuration can help accommodate cable positioning in electrical distribution equipment, control cabinets, machinery assemblies and other installations where the orientation of a bolted electrical connection is important.
Correct conductor preparation, crimping and fastening are essential to achieving a reliable electrical connection. The conductor should be stripped to the appropriate length, inserted into the copper tube barrel and crimped using a tool and die suitable for the terminal and conductor combination. The ring connection should then be secured to the M12 stud using compatible fastening hardware and the equipment manufacturer's specified tightening torque. The completed installation must provide suitable electrical clearances, cable support and bend radius, with the terminal selected according to the applicable conductor, current-carrying and environmental requirements.

The Partex COL16-12/RA is a right-angle copper tube terminal designed to connect compatible electrical conductors to M12 stud or bolted terminals. Its angled configuration makes it useful for electrical distribution equipment, control panels and industrial machinery where cable routing and connection orientation need to be considered.
The COL16-12/RA is designed for a nominal conductor cross-section of 16 mm². The conductor construction and dimensions must be compatible with the terminal barrel and the selected crimping equipment to achieve a suitable electrical and mechanical connection.
A right-angle copper tube terminal provides an angled connection between the conductor entry and the mounting point. This can help accommodate cable routing requirements in control panels, distribution assemblies and industrial equipment where a conventional straight ring terminal may be less convenient.
The terminal is designed for an M12 stud connection. The mounting stud, fastening hardware and electrical contact surface must be compatible with the terminal and suitable for the intended installation.
The Partex COL16-12/RA is supplied in a pack of 100 right-angle copper tube terminals, making it suitable for electrical panel building, industrial wiring, OEM equipment manufacturing and maintenance projects requiring multiple identical cable terminations.
Partex cable identification and termination products support professional electrical installation, industrial automation and control panel manufacturing. The COL16-12/RA right-angle copper tube terminal provides electricians, panel builders, OEM manufacturers and maintenance engineers with a practical solution for terminating compatible 16 mm² conductors onto M12 stud connections where an angled cable arrangement is required, supplied in a convenient pack of 100 for installation, production and maintenance work.
