Sta-Kon RC6-HT – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a Sta-Kon RC6-HT wire joint used for?
The RC6-HT is a nylon insulated wire joint, used as a terminating point where a group of wires all run in one direction (a pigtail splice rather than a butt splice). It is crimped, not twisted on, so the conductors are joined mechanically inside a nylon insulating sleeve.
2) Can I use the Sta-Kon RC6-HT in a high temperature fixture or heater junction box?
Yes. The RC6-HT is the high temperature version of the RC6 joint and is rated to 150 degrees C, which is why it gets specified in luminaire housings, heater terminations, and other hot enclosures where a standard-temperature splice is not acceptable.
3) Can I use the RC6-HT to splice two wires coming from opposite directions?
No. The RC6-HT is built to terminate a group of wires entering from one direction only. For a straight end-to-end connection between two conductors coming from opposite sides, use a butt splice instead.
4) Is the Sta-Kon RC6-HT UL listed?
The RC6-HT carries UL file E9809.
5) What is the difference between the RC6-HT and a standard RC6 wire joint?
Same RC6 joint design, different insulation duty. The HT suffix is the high temperature variant, rated to 150 degrees C. If the splice sits in ambient heat, order the HT; the specification difference is the temperature rating, not the wire grouping function.
6) Is the Sta-Kon RC6-HT made in the USA for Buy American jobs?
Country of origin on the RC6-HT is the United States, which is what institutional and government procurement typically needs on record for domestic sourcing requirements.
7) Do I need a special crimp tool for the Sta-Kon RC6-HT, or can I twist it on?
It is a crimp-type joint, not a twist-on connector. The nylon insulated barrel has to be compressed with a crimping tool sized for Sta-Kon insulated terminations; hand-twisting will not make a sound termination. Order the tool separately, it does not come with the joint.
8) What color is the RC6-HT wire joint, and does the color identify the size?
White. On Sta-Kon insulated terminations the insulation color is the size/series identifier, so when you are matching what is already in a box, the white RC6-HT body is what distinguishes it from other joints in the line.
9) What is the manufacturer part number for the Sta-Kon high temperature RC6 joint?
RC6-HT is the Sta-Kon part number, and it is the only configuration offered under that designation, so there is no finish or size option to specify when ordering.
