Why Choose the Partex COL2.5-4 Copper Tube Ring Terminal?
The Partex COL2.5-4 is a professional 2.5 mm² copper tube ring terminal designed to provide a secure electrical connection between a compatible conductor and an M4 stud or terminal connection point. Manufactured from copper and featuring a closed-ring termination design, this crimp terminal offers a practical solution for electrical control panels, switchgear assemblies, industrial machinery, power distribution equipment and electrical installation applications.
The Partex COL2.5-4 copper cable lug combines a tubular conductor entry with a ring-shaped mounting eye, allowing a suitably prepared 2.5 mm² conductor to be crimped into the terminal before the ring is secured to a compatible M4 threaded connection. This arrangement provides a mechanically retained termination and an electrically conductive connection path when installed using the correct crimping equipment and fastening method.
Supplied in a convenient pack of 100 terminals, the Partex COL2.5-4 is particularly useful for electrical contractors, industrial panel builders, machinery manufacturers and maintenance engineers requiring consistent cable termination components. Its copper construction, M4 stud compatibility and straightforward crimp termination method make it a practical choice for professional electrical wiring and equipment assembly.

Reliable Copper Ring Terminal Connections for Professional Electrical Installations
Ring terminals are widely used where electrical conductors need to be secured to a threaded stud or bolted connection point. The Partex COL2.5-4 2.5 mm² copper tube ring terminal provides a conductive interface between the prepared cable end and a compatible M4 mounting stud. Its closed-ring design means the mounting eye surrounds the stud, helping retain the terminal in position when the fastening hardware is correctly installed.
Correct crimping is essential for achieving a dependable electrical termination. The conductor should be stripped to the appropriate length without damaging its strands, then inserted fully into the tubular section of the terminal. A compatible crimping tool and die should be used to compress the copper barrel according to the manufacturer's instructions. After crimping, the connection should be checked for proper conductor engagement, mechanical retention and correct termination quality.
The ring terminal can then be positioned over a suitable M4 stud and secured using the appropriate fastening arrangement. Electrical contact surfaces should be suitable for the connection, and fastening torque should follow the equipment manufacturer's requirements. The Partex COL2.5-4 must also be selected for the conductor construction, electrical loading and installation environment. Where insulation, strain relief or environmental protection is necessary, suitable additional components should be used. Current ratings, operating temperatures and any specific compliance requirements should be verified against the relevant manufacturer documentation.
