Why Choose the Partex COL35-16/RA Right-Angle Copper Tube Terminal?
The Partex COL35-16/RA is a right-angle copper tube terminal designed to provide a secure electrical connection between a compatible 35 mm² conductor and an M16 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 cable routing and connection orientation are important considerations.
As part of the Partex COL copper tube terminal range, the COL35-16/RA combines conductive copper construction with a tubular crimp barrel and a right-angle ring mounting connection. The tubular barrel accommodates the electrical conductor for crimp termination, while the angled ring end enables the cable to approach the bolted connection from a different direction compared with a conventional straight ring terminal. This arrangement can help accommodate equipment layouts, cable entry requirements and installation space constraints.
Designed for 35 mm² nominal conductor cross-sections and M16 stud connections, the Partex COL35-16/RA is suitable for electrical assemblies requiring a crimped cable termination with an angled mounting arrangement. Supplied in a convenient pack of 50 terminals, it provides a practical solution for electricians, electrical panel builders, OEM equipment manufacturers and industrial maintenance engineers undertaking installation, production and cable termination projects.

Reliable Right-Angle Cable Termination for Industrial Electrical Installations
Right-angle copper tube terminals are useful in electrical installations where equipment arrangement, available space or cable entry direction requires an alternative to a straight cable lug. The Partex COL35-16/RA provides a practical method of terminating a compatible 35 mm² conductor onto an M16 stud using an angled ring connection. This configuration can help accommodate cable positioning in electrical distribution equipment, industrial machinery, control cabinets and other assemblies where the orientation of a bolted electrical connection is important.
Correct terminal selection and installation are essential for a dependable 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 M16 stud using compatible fastening hardware and the equipment manufacturer's specified tightening torque. The completed installation must provide suitable electrical clearance, cable support, strain relief and bend radius. The stud, contact surface and fastening arrangement must also be verified for the intended electrical current and mechanical loading, as the stud size alone does not establish the current rating of the connection.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panels and switchgear assemblies.
- Electrical distribution equipment with compatible M16 bolted connections.
- Busbar connection points requiring angled cable termination.
- Motor control equipment and industrial machinery wiring.
- Electrical cabinets with restricted cable routing space.
- OEM electrical equipment manufacturing and assembly.
- Industrial automation and electrical distribution systems.
- Equipment installations requiring right-angle cable entry.
- Electrical maintenance and cable replacement projects.
- Custom electrical cable assemblies using compatible 35 mm² conductors.
- Electrical installations requiring a 35 mm² crimp barrel and M16 ring mounting connection.
