About Bootlace Ferrules — Why Use Them

A bootlace ferrule (also called a pin ferrule or end sleeve) is crimped onto the end of a stranded conductor before insertion into a screw terminal block. Without a ferrule, the individual strands of a stranded conductor can splay, break off, or work loose from a screw terminal over time — reducing contact reliability and creating the risk of stray strands causing short circuits or poor connections. The crimped ferrule consolidates all conductor strands into a single rigid pin that inserts cleanly and securely into the terminal, and stays secure under vibration and repeated terminal cycling.

The BL025 uses halogen free, flame retardant nylon insulation — meeting the increasing requirement for halogen free materials in modern installations, particularly in enclosed spaces, transportation, and building automation applications. The insulated collar serves two purposes — it protects the conductor strands at the point of entry into the ferrule barrel, and it provides a colour-coded wire size identification that allows the ferrule size to be confirmed visually without removing the conductor from the terminal.

Grey is the standard collar colour for 2.5mm² ferrules within the DIN 46228/4 colour coding system used across European and Australian control and instrumentation wiring practice. The BL025 conforms to DIN 46228/4 and is supplied by Pacific Components — an Australian distributor of quality electrical components.

Q: What wire size does the BL025 suit?
A: The BL025 suits 2.5mm² stranded conductors — commonly used in power and control wiring in automation, switchboard, and industrial applications.

Q: What is the pin length of the BL025?
A: The BL025 has an 8mm pin length — suited to standard DIN rail screw terminal blocks and most equipment screw terminals.

Q: Is the BL025 halogen free?
A: Yes — the BL025 uses halogen free, flame retardant nylon insulation. It conforms to RoHS and REACH.

Q: What tool is required to crimp the BL025?
A: A standard bootlace ferrule ratchet crimping tool is required. The tool must have a die set that accommodates 2.5mm² ferrules.

Q: How many ferrules are in a pack?
A: The BL025 is sold in a pack of 500 ferrules.
