Sta-Kon RC484 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon RC484 ring terminal crimp onto?
The RC484 is sized for 12-10 AWG conductor. Yellow is the standard color code for that range, so if you are working off a color-coded crimp tool or die set, yellow is the 12-10 AWG position. For 16-14 AWG you need a blue terminal and for 22-18 AWG a red one, not this part.
2) Is this Sta-Kon terminal rated for 600 volt control and branch circuit work?
Yes, the RC484 carries a 600 V rating and is UL recognized under file E9809, which covers the usual control panel, motor connection, and branch-circuit terminations an electrical contractor or MRO shop deals with.
3) Why pick a rectangular tongue ring terminal instead of a standard round ring or a spade?
The rectangular tongue on the RC484 keeps a narrower, squared profile at the barrel end while still being a closed ring, so it seats on crowded terminal blocks where round tongues of the same stud size overlap each other. Unlike a spade or fork, it will not pull off a loosening screw, which is why ring style is specified for vibration-prone equipment and most grounding connections.
4) Is the Sta-Kon RC484 copper or aluminum, and can I use it on aluminum conductors?
The barrel is copper, so it is intended for copper conductors. Aluminum wire needs a terminal specifically marked AL or AL/CU with the appropriate oxide-inhibiting compound; crimping aluminum into a copper-only barrel creates a dissimilar-metal joint.
5) Does the nylon insulation on the RC484 hold up better than vinyl?
Nylon is the tougher of the two common insulation sleeves on crimp terminals, resisting abrasion and cut-through where the harness is pulled through a panel or bundled tight. The RC484 uses a nylon sleeve over a copper barrel, and the funnel entry helps strand control when you insert 12-10 AWG conductor.
6) Is the Sta-Kon RC484 made in the USA for jobs with domestic sourcing requirements?
Country of origin on the RC484 is the United States, which matters on government, institutional, and utility work carrying domestic-content clauses.
7) What is the exact part number to order this yellow 12-10 AWG No. 6 ring terminal?
Order it as Sta-Kon RC484. That one number covers the whole configuration: nylon insulated rectangular ring, 12-10 AWG barrel, No. 6 stud hole, yellow.
