Insulated Crimp Ferrule – 16mm Sleeve, Blue PVC Insulation, for Wire End Protection

This high-quality Insulated Crimp Ferrule is an essential component for creating professional, reliable, and safe electrical connections. Designed with a 16mm sleeve length and a 24mm total length, it features a durable blue PVC insulation that provides both mechanical protection and electrical safety. The ferrule is crafted from precision tin-plated copper, ensuring excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance. It is specifically designed to be crimped onto stranded wires, preventing fraying, improving contact in terminal blocks, and ensuring a gas-tight connection that meets international electrical standards. This simple yet critical component is a must-have for any electrician, technician, or DIY enthusiast working on control panels, machinery, or any electrical installation.

Key Features and Benefits of this Insulated Crimp Ferrule:

Secure Wire End Protection: This insulated crimp ferrule encapsulates the end of stranded wires, preventing individual strands from fraying, breaking off, or causing short circuits in terminal blocks. This is essential for maintaining long-term connection integrity. Learn more about DIN standards for ferrules.
Improved Electrical Connection: By creating a solid, clean end on a stranded wire, the ferrule ensures maximum surface contact with the terminal screw, leading to a lower resistance, more reliable connection that is less prone to loosening from vibration.
Blue PVC Insulation for Safety: The color-coded blue PVC insulation provides permanent finger protection, prevents accidental contact with live parts, and allows for easy visual identification of the wire size or type.
Tin-Plated Copper Construction: Made from high-conductivity copper with a tin plating, the ferrule offers superior electrical performance and protects against oxidation and corrosion, which is crucial for maintaining a stable connection over time.
Easy and Fast Installation: Designed to be crimped quickly and securely with a standard ratcheting crimping tool, these ferrules streamline the wiring process and ensure a consistent, professional result every time.
