Sta-Kon RB724 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RB724 ring terminal accept?
The RB724 is sized for 18 to 14 AWG stranded copper conductor. That is the blue color band on insulated terminals, so if the crimp dies on your tool are color coded, you want the blue die. Anything 16 AWG or 12 AWG falls outside the range: 12 AWG needs the yellow 12-10 terminal, and sub-18 AWG needs the red 22-16.
2) Is the Sta-Kon RB724 UL listed, and what voltage can I use it at?
It carries UL file E9809 and is rated 600 V, which covers standard commercial and industrial control panel, motor connection, and branch circuit work. The 600 V rating is a property of the nylon insulation sleeve, not the barrel.
3) Is the barrel on this Sta-Kon terminal copper or aluminum?
Copper. That means the RB724 is for copper conductor only, not aluminum. Terminating aluminum wire in a copper-only terminal is a code problem and a failure point from dissimilar metal corrosion, so for aluminum you need a listed AL/CU rated connector instead.
4) Nylon insulated or vinyl insulated ring terminals, which should I use?
The RB724 uses a nylon insulation sleeve. Nylon takes higher temperature and resists abrasion, cut-through, and solvents better than vinyl, which is why it is the usual pick for panel builds, motor terminations, and anywhere the harness gets pulled through conduit or rubbed against an enclosure edge. Vinyl is the cheaper choice for low-stress indoor terminations. Both crimp with the same color-coded dies.
5) Do I need a special crimper for the Sta-Kon RB724?
It crimps with a standard insulated-terminal crimp tool using the blue die position for 18-14 AWG. Sta-Kon also makes dedicated hand and ratcheting tools for their line. No tooling is supplied with the terminal itself, so if you are setting up a panel bench, order the crimper separately.
6) What is the exact part number to reorder this blue 5/16 ring terminal?
Sta-Kon RB724. The R prefix denotes the ring tongue, B is the blue 18-14 AWG wire range, and 724 identifies the 5/16 inch stud size. Quote RB724 and you will get the same part every time, which matters if you are standardizing a panel shop on one terminal line.
7) Where is the Sta-Kon RB724 terminal made?
Made in the United States. For federal, state, or institutional jobs carrying a domestic sourcing clause on the spec, that matters at submittal time, and it is one of the few electrical consumables where it is documented at the part level.
