Intercable ICIAE1014Z Wire End Sleeve Red 2.5 mm² Length 26 mm Pack of 100

The Intercable ICIAE1014Z wire end sleeve in red is a professional electrical accessory designed to provide secure and reliable wire termination. Manufactured by Intercable Tools GmbH, this component ensures that multi-strand electrical conductors are held firmly together, preventing frayed strands and potential short circuits in various electrical installations. With a cross-section of 2.5 mm² and a total length of 26 mm, it is engineered to meet strict technical requirements for cable management and connection stability. Each commercial pack contains 100 pieces, making it a practical choice for both routine electrical maintenance and larger installation projects.

Advantages

Using these wire end sleeves significantly improves the quality and safety of electrical connections. The sleeve contains individual strands securely within a tight metal barrel, which eliminates the risk of loose wires wandering outside terminal blocks. This results in a superior contact surface area, lowering electrical resistance and preventing overheating at connection points. The bright red insulation colour allows for quick visual identification and color-coding of circuits during wiring work. Furthermore, the robust construction protects the wire ends from mechanical damage during repeated insertion and tightening cycles in screw or spring terminals.

Suitable for

• Terminating 2.5 mm² flexible electrical wires in control panels
• Electrical wiring in residential and commercial installations
• Connecting stranded conductors to terminal blocks and circuit breakers
• Professional maintenance and repair of electrical equipment

When it may not be suitable

This product is not designed for use with solid core electrical wires, as solid conductors do not require sleeves for termination. It is also unsuitable for wire cross-sections significantly larger or smaller than the specified 2.5 mm².

Key specifications

• Product type: Wire end sleeve
• Colour: Red
• Cross-section: 2.5 mm²
• Length: 26 mm
• Quantity per pack: 100 pieces

How to use

To use the wire end sleeve correctly, first strip the electrical wire to the appropriate length so that the exposed copper matches the barrel depth of the sleeve. Twist the stripped strands slightly to ensure they align properly, then slide the wire end sleeve over the conductors until the insulation of the wire abuts the plastic collar or sleeve opening. Use a calibrated crimping tool designed for wire end sleeves to compress the metal tube securely onto the conductors. Once crimped, inspect the connection to ensure no strands are protruding before inserting the terminated wire into the target terminal and tightening securely.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the wire cross-section of your cables matches the 2.5 mm² specification
• Ensure you possess a compatible crimping tool for proper installation
• Check the required quantity for your project to confirm whether a pack of 100 pieces is sufficient

Usage recommendations

Always use the correct crimping profile corresponding to the wire cross-section to guarantee a gas-tight and mechanically durable connection.
