Sta-Kon RB854 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon RB854 ring terminal accept?
The RB854 is sized for 18 to 14 AWG stranded copper conductor, which is the blue insulation color code on nylon insulated terminals. If you are terminating 16 or 12 AWG, that falls outside the barrel range and you need the red (22-16) or yellow (12-10) size instead.
2) What stud or screw size does the RB854 ring terminal fit?
It is a No. 6 ring, so it drops over a #6 stud or screw on a terminal block, ground lug, or motor connection. The ring is a closed tongue, meaning the screw has to come out to install or remove it, unlike a spade/fork terminal that slides in under a loosened screw.
3) Do I need a special crimper for the Sta-Kon RB854?
It is a crimp terminal, not solder or screw type, so it needs a crimp tool matched to insulated terminals in the 18-14 AWG range (the blue die position on a color coded crimper). No tool is supplied with the terminal itself.
4) What is the conductor material on the RB854, and can I use it on aluminum wire?
The barrel is copper, so use it on copper conductors only. Aluminum wire needs an AL/CU rated connector with the proper compound; putting aluminum into a copper-only barrel is a failure point.
5) Is the insulation on the RB854 nylon or vinyl, and does it matter?
Nylon. Nylon insulated terminals hold up better than vinyl to abrasion, heat, and solvents, which is why they get specified for motor control centers, panel work, and anywhere the harness gets pulled through conduit or chased. The sleeve also gives funnel entry for the strands.
6) Is the Sta-Kon RB854 made in the USA?
Country of origin is the United States, which matters if you are buying against a government, federal facility, or Buy American spec.
7) What part number do I order for a blue No. 6 ring terminal from Sta-Kon?
Sta-Kon part number RB854 covers the nylon insulated No. 6 ring terminal for 18-14 AWG in blue. One model, so there are no finish or size suffixes to specify.
