Sta-Kon RB2237-200M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon RB2237-200M locking fork terminal accept?
The RB2237-200M is sized for 18 to 14 AWG stranded wire. The blue insulation is the standard color code for that gauge band, so on a panel where crimps are color-sorted it reads as the 16 AWG-range terminal at a glance. For 22-16 AWG or 12-10 AWG runs you need a different terminal in the series.
2) What is the difference between a locking fork terminal and a plain spade terminal?
A locking fork, like the Sta-Kon RB2237-200M, has turned-up tangs at the tips of the fork so the terminal snaps under the screw head and will not slide back off if the screw loosens slightly. A plain spade slips straight off the moment the screw backs out. On vibrating equipment, motor controls, or terminal strips you have to service in place, the locking style is the one to use. A ring tongue is still more secure, but it means pulling the screw all the way out.
3) Is the Sta-Kon RB2237-200M UL listed?
It carries UL file E9809. That is the recognition reference an inspector or submittal reviewer will want for insulated crimp terminals on a control panel.
4) Do I need a special crimper for Sta-Kon insulated terminals?
Insulated crimp terminals in the 18-14 AWG range need a ratcheting crimp tool with the correct insulated-barrel nest for that gauge band. A plain pliers crimp will not form the barrel properly and the connection will not hold. The tool is bought separately from the terminals.
5) Is the insulation on this Sta-Kon fork terminal nylon or vinyl?
Vinyl. The RB2237-200M uses a vinyl insulating sleeve, which is the standard choice for general-purpose indoor control and panel wiring. If the job calls for nylon because of higher temperature or abrasion exposure, specify a nylon-insulated terminal instead.
6) Are these Sta-Kon terminals made in the USA?
Yes, country of origin on the RB2237-200M is the United States, which matters if you are filling a government or institutional order with domestic-content language in the spec.
