Why Choose the Partex CEF418G-K Grey Insulated Cord End Ferrule?
The Partex CEF418G-K is a single insulated cord end ferrule designed for terminating flexible stranded electrical conductors in industrial control panels, electrical distribution equipment and automation systems. Featuring a 4 mm² conductor size, 18 mm barrel length and grey insulated collar, this ferrule provides a practical solution for preparing conductors for compatible terminal connections.
As part of the Partex cord end ferrule range, the CEF418G-K helps keep individual wire strands together during termination. Its metal barrel is designed to be crimped onto a correctly prepared conductor, while the insulated collar supports conductor insertion and provides a defined transition between the cable insulation and the terminated end.
Supplied in a convenient pack of 1,000 ferrules, the CEF418G-K is particularly suitable for control-panel manufacturers, electrical contractors, OEM equipment builders and industrial maintenance teams requiring consistent cable preparation across repeated wiring operations.

Professional Cable Termination for Industrial Control and Automation
Flexible stranded conductors are widely used in industrial control panels, motor control equipment and automation systems. When these conductors are connected to suitable electrical terminals, a correctly selected cord end ferrule can help maintain the conductor strands together, providing a defined termination profile and reducing the likelihood of stray strands during installation.
The Partex CEF418G-K is designed for 4 mm² single-conductor termination and features an 18 mm barrel. The conductor is stripped to the appropriate length, inserted fully into the ferrule and crimped using a suitable ferrule crimping tool. The grey insulated collar provides a convenient transition at the conductor entry, while the crimped barrel is inserted into a compatible electrical terminal.
Correct selection is essential for dependable electrical connections. The receiving terminal must accept the finished ferrule dimensions and barrel length, and the conductor type, stripping length, crimp profile and tightening requirements must be checked against the relevant manufacturers' instructions. A single cord end ferrule should not be used to terminate two conductors unless that arrangement is specifically approved.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control-panel manufacturing.
- PLC cabinets and automation system wiring.
- Motor control centres and associated control circuits.
- Electrical distribution boards and control enclosures.
- Terminal block connections for flexible stranded conductors.
- Variable speed drive and motor control equipment wiring where compatible.
- OEM machinery and electrical equipment manufacturing.
- Industrial electrical maintenance and refurbishment.
- Workshop cable preparation and harness assembly.
- High-volume conductor termination and panel-building operations.
