Sta-Kon RC1253 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RC1253 fork terminal take?
The Sta-Kon RC1253 flanged fork terminal is sized for 12-10 AWG copper wire, and the yellow nylon insulation is the standard color code for that gauge range. If you are terminating 16-14 AWG you need a blue-barrel terminal instead, and 22-18 AWG takes a red one; crimping a smaller conductor in a yellow barrel will not hold.
2) What is the difference between a flanged fork terminal and a plain fork terminal?
The flange is a turned-up lip on each leg of the fork. It keeps the terminal from sliding out from under the screw head when the screw is only partly tightened, so the connection stays put during install and under vibration. A plain spade has no lip and can walk out sideways. If you want a connection that cannot come off without removing the screw, use a ring tongue instead.
3) Is the RC1253 terminal rated for 600 volt control and panel wiring?
Yes, it carries a 600 V rating, which covers panel terminations, control circuits, and motor control center wiring. The nylon insulating sleeve is what provides that rating at the barrel.
4) Is this Sta-Kon terminal UL listed, and where is it made?
The RC1253 is covered under UL file E9809 and is manufactured in the United States. Both matter on institutional and government jobs where a UL file reference and domestic origin have to be documented in the submittal.
5) Can I crimp this terminal with standard pliers, or do I need a specific tool?
Use a proper insulated-terminal crimp tool with the yellow 12-10 AWG nest. Ordinary pliers deform the copper barrel unevenly and the joint ends up high resistance, which is what causes heating at a terminal block. The nylon sleeve also needs a die that supports it rather than slicing it.
6) Is the RC1253 copper terminal suitable for aluminum conductors?
No. The barrel is copper and is intended for copper conductors only. Aluminum wire requires a terminal rated AL/CU with the appropriate compound, so specify a dual-rated lug for aluminum feeders.
7) Why choose nylon insulation over vinyl on a fork terminal?
Nylon is tougher than vinyl and resists abrasion and cracking better, so the insulating sleeve holds up when terminals are packed tight in a panel or pulled through a wireway. The RC1253 uses a nylon sleeve over a copper barrel.
