Sta-Kon 2RAA – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Sta-Kon 2RAA aircraft splice accept?
The Sta-Kon 2RAA butt splice is sized for 22-18 AWG stranded copper wire, the red color code used across the industry for that range. If your conductor is 16 or 14 AWG you need the next size up (blue), not this one. Both ends take the same 22-18 range, so it joins like to like.
2) Is the 2RAA splice rated 600 volts and is it UL listed?
Yes on both counts. The 2RAA carries a 600 V rating and is covered under UL file E9809, which is what inspectors and spec writers on institutional and MRO jobs usually want to see cited.
3) How hot can a Sta-Kon 2RAA nylon insulated splice run?
105 degrees C is the continuous temperature rating on the 2RAA. That covers most control panel, luminaire and general building wiring work. For high-temperature fixture leads or anything running above 105 C, use a non-nylon high-temp terminal instead.
4) What is the difference between a nylon insulated splice and a vinyl one?
Nylon insulation, as used on the 2RAA, is tougher against abrasion and cut-through when wires get pulled through conduit or bundled tight, and it holds the 105 C rating. Vinyl barrels are softer and generally lower temperature. For panel and harness work where the splice gets handled, nylon is the one to pick.
5) What is the barrel on the Sta-Kon 2RAA made of?
Copper. That matters for two reasons: you get low resistance at the joint, and it should be crimped onto copper conductors rather than aluminum to avoid a dissimilar metal connection.
6) Do I need a special crimp tool for the 2RAA aircraft splice?
Use a controlled-cycle crimper with the red 22-18 AWG nest. The red insulation on the 2RAA is the color code that tells you which die position to use. Pliers or a generic squeeze tool will deform the copper barrel unevenly and the UL E9809 listing assumes a proper crimp.
7) Is the Sta-Kon 2RAA made in the USA for Buy American jobs?
Country of origin on the 2RAA splice is the United States, which is what government, healthcare and education procurement usually need documented on domestic preference work.
8) What part number do I order for the red 22-18 AWG Sta-Kon aircraft splice?
Order Sta-Kon MPN 2RAA. It is the red, nylon insulated aircraft butt splice for 22-18 AWG copper, rated 600 V at 105 C.
