Why Choose the Partex BS53/RA M5 Blue Spade Terminals?
The Partex BS53/RA is a high-quality blue insulated right angled spade terminal (fork crimp terminal) designed for secure electrical connections between stranded copper conductors and M5 screw or stud terminals. Manufactured for professional electrical installation and industrial wiring applications, these terminals provide a practical and dependable solution for terminating cables in electrical control panels, distribution equipment and industrial machinery.
Featuring a right angled fork design and high-grade blue PVC insulation, the BS53/RA allows cables to be connected at an angle to the fixing point, making it particularly useful where installation space or cable routing is restricted. The open-ended spade contact enables convenient installation and removal from compatible screw terminals without completely removing the fixing screw.
Designed for 1.5–2.5 mm² (16–14 AWG) conductors, the Partex BS53/RA features a 5.3 mm fork opening for M5 studs and an insulated crimp barrel that supports secure and consistent cable termination. Supplied in a convenient pack of 100, these right angled spade terminals are ideal for electrical contractors, control panel builders, maintenance engineers and OEM equipment manufacturers.

Reliable Right Angled Electrical Connections for Industrial Wiring
Spade terminals provide an efficient method of connecting electrical conductors to screw or stud terminals. The Partex BS53/RA M5 right angled fork terminal features an open-ended contact that can be positioned beneath a loosened fixing screw, allowing electrical connections to be installed or removed without fully withdrawing the screw from the terminal.
The right angled configuration makes the BS53/RA particularly useful where cables need to approach a terminal from a different direction or where limited space makes conventional straight terminals difficult to install. This design helps installers achieve neat, organised cable routing in electrical cabinets, machinery enclosures and control panel assemblies.
The blue PVC insulated crimp barrel is designed for conductors with a cross-section of 1.5–2.5 mm². When installed using an appropriately matched crimping tool, the terminal provides a secure mechanical connection and dependable electrical continuity. The high-grade PVC insulation helps maintain termination integrity while supporting efficient assembly and maintenance work.
