Why Choose the Partex COL16-5/RA Right-Angle Copper Tube Terminal?
The Partex COL16-5/RA is a right-angle copper tube ring terminal designed for terminating 16 mm² electrical conductors onto an M5 threaded stud or bolted electrical connection. Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 terminals, this angled cable lug provides a practical solution for creating secure electrical connections in control panels, distribution equipment and industrial electrical installations.
The terminal features a copper tubular barrel for crimping onto a correctly sized conductor and a right-angle ring connection that allows the cable to approach the mounting point at an angle to the connection surface. This configuration is particularly useful in electrical enclosures, switchgear assemblies and machinery where cable routing space is limited or a straight cable lug would require additional conductor bending.
With its 16 mm² conductor capacity, M5 stud compatibility and right-angle terminal design, the Partex COL16-5/RA is suitable for electrical contractors, industrial panel builders and maintenance engineers requiring consistent cable terminations. The pack of 100 supports repeated installation, equipment manufacturing and electrical maintenance work.

Reliable Right-Angle Cable Termination for Electrical Equipment
Right-angle copper tube terminals provide a practical method of connecting electrical conductors to equipment terminals, distribution connections and threaded studs while accommodating cable routing requirements. The Partex COL16-5/RA combines a tubular crimp barrel with an angled ring mounting section, allowing a correctly prepared 16 mm² conductor to be terminated and mechanically fastened to a compatible M5 electrical connection.
The right-angle configuration is especially useful where cable entry direction, enclosure depth or adjacent components make straight terminal installation less convenient. For dependable performance, the conductor should be prepared and crimped using tooling suitable for the terminal design and cable size. The completed connection must be secured according to the equipment manufacturer's fastening requirements, with the electrical load, terminal compatibility, conductor support and installation clearances considered before use.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panels and switchgear assemblies.
- Electrical distribution boards and compatible power connection points.
- Compact electrical enclosures with restricted cable routing space.
- Industrial machinery and automation equipment.
- Motor control panels and electrical equipment terminals.
- Electrical maintenance and cable replacement installations.
- Equipment manufacturing and electrical panel building.
- M5 stud connections requiring a right-angle cable termination.
