Insulated Cable Ferrule 2.5 mm × 8 mm, No name, model 13465

Insulated cable ferrule 2.5 mm × 8 mm is a crimp terminal designed for terminating stranded electrical conductors. The insulated sleeve ensures electrical insulation and mechanical protection while the metal barrel provides a reliable crimped contact. This ferrule is intended to simplify insertion into terminal blocks, screw connectors and other types of electrical connectors, improving contact area and reducing stray strands.

Advantages

This insulated ferrule provides consistent conductor confinement and improved conductivity at the termination point. The combination of a corrosion-resistant metal barrel and an insulating collar reduces the risk of short circuits and mechanical damage. Its 2.5 mm × 8 mm size is commonly used for medium-gauge stranded wires, offering straightforward crimping and repeatable, secure connections suitable for routine electrical installations and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Termination of stranded copper conductors in control panels and junction boxes
• Connections to terminal blocks and screw-type connectors
• Electrical installations, equipment wiring and maintenance tasks
• Automotive repair and hobby electronics where insulated terminations are required

Key specifications

• Conductor compatibility: stranded wires corresponding to a 2.5 mm cross-sectional ferrule size
• Barrel length: 8 mm
• Insulation: insulated sleeve around the barrel for electrical isolation
• Material: metal crimp barrel with insulating collar (plastic)
• Typical application: screw terminals, terminal blocks and plug connectors

How to use

Strip the conductor to the appropriate length so the bare strands fully enter the metal barrel. Insert the stripped conductor into the ferrule until the insulation meets the collar. Use a suitable crimping tool sized for 2.5 mm ferrules and apply a firm, even crimp until the ferrule is securely deformed around the conductor. After crimping, inspect the connection for loose strands and proper seating, then install the terminated conductor into the chosen terminal or connector and tighten the screw or clamp to the manufacturer’s recommended torque.

Usage recommendations

Use a dedicated insulated-ferrule crimper for consistent results; avoid pliers or generic crimpers that may not produce a reliable joint. Choose ferrules that match the conductor cross-section and follow connector torque specifications to maintain safe and long-lasting electrical connections.
