Sta-Kon RBC14-12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RBC14-12 ring terminal take?
The RBC14-12 is sized for 16 to 14 AWG stranded copper wire. Green insulation is the color code for that range on Sta-Kon nylon terminals, so a bin of green barrels is your 16-14 range at a glance. Going smaller (22-18) or larger (12-10) means a different terminal, not a harder crimp.
2) Will the RBC14-12 ring terminal fit a 1/2 inch stud?
Yes. The RBC14-12 is built with a 1/2 inch ring, which is the largest stud size commonly used on panel lugs, busbars and large ground studs. On a 10-32 or 1/4-20 stud the ring will slop around under the nut, so use a terminal sized to the stud instead.
3) Is this Sta-Kon ring terminal rated for 600 volt control and power wiring?
Rated 600 V, and UL listed under file E9809. That covers typical motor control panel, machine tool and building control wiring up to 600 volts.
4) Do I need a special crimper for the Sta-Kon RBC14-12?
Use a ratcheting crimper with a nylon-insulated terminal die set in the 16-14 AWG nest, color coded blue on most tool scales. A plain uninsulated-terminal die will cut the nylon sleeve, and pliers will not give a gas-tight crimp on a heavy-duty barrel.
5) Is the RBC14-12 terminal made in the USA?
Yes, the RBC14-12 is manufactured in the United States, which matters on federal, military and Buy American funded jobs where domestic sourcing has to be documented on the submittal.
6) Can I use this ring terminal on aluminum wire?
No. The RBC14-12 barrel is copper and is listed for copper conductors only. Aluminum needs an AL/CU rated connector with the appropriate oxide inhibitor; putting aluminum into a copper-only crimp barrel creates a galvanic joint that will heat over time.
7) What is the Sta-Kon part number for a green 16-14 AWG ring terminal with a 1/2 inch stud hole?
RBC14-12. That is the manufacturer part number to specify or cross reference for a nylon insulated heavy-duty ring terminal, 16-14 AWG, 1/2 inch ring, green.
