Sta-Kon RCC23 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RCC23 splice take?
The RCC23 nylon insulated aircraft splice is sized for 12-10 AWG stranded copper conductors. It is a butt splice, so both ends go into the same wire range, and the yellow insulation is the standard color code for the 12-10 AWG band. Don't crimp a 14 AWG wire in it; you'll get a loose barrel. Step down to the blue 16-14 AWG splice for that.
2) Is the RCC23 splice rated 600V for use in a control panel?
Yes, the RCC23 carries a 600 V rating and a 105 degree C temperature rating, which covers typical control panel and machine wiring where conductor insulation is rated 90 or 105 C. It is UL recognized under file E9809.
3) What does "aircraft splice" mean on a Sta-Kon RCC23 - is it only for aviation?
No. "Aircraft splice" describes the construction, not a restriction on use. It's a nylon insulated butt splice with a brazed or seamless copper barrel built to hold up to vibration and flexing, so it gets used in aviation, transit, and mobile equipment as well as in general industrial and MRO wire repair. Electrically it's a standard 600 V, 105 C, 12-10 AWG butt splice.
4) Should I use a nylon insulated splice like the RCC23 or a vinyl one?
Nylon, like the RCC23, is the tougher choice. Nylon insulation resists abrasion and cut-through better than vinyl and carries a higher heat rating; this one is good to 105 degrees C. Vinyl splices generally top out lower, so for engine compartments, panel interiors, and anywhere the harness rubs or gets pulled, go nylon. Vinyl is fine for cooler, low-stress indoor work.
5) Can I crimp the Sta-Kon RCC23 with regular pliers or do I need a crimp tool?
Use a proper crimp tool. The RCC23 is a copper barrel splice that relies on a controlled crimp to make the mechanical and electrical connection, and it needs the yellow 12-10 AWG die or nest on a Sta-Kon or equivalent ratcheting crimper. Pliers deform the barrel unevenly and the joint will not hold the conductor or keep its 600 V insulation integrity.
6) Is the Sta-Kon RCC23 made in the USA?
Yes. The RCC23 splice's country of origin is the United States, which matters on government, transit, and institutional jobs carrying domestic content requirements.
7) How do I order the Sta-Kon RCC23 - is there more than one version?
One configuration only. The part number is RCC23, a yellow nylon insulated 12-10 AWG butt splice. There are no finish, size, or color options to specify.
