Sta-Kon F2033 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Sta-Kon F2033 ferrule UL recognized?
It carries UL file E489056. That is the reference an inspector or submittal package needs when ferrules are used on stranded conductors landing in control panel terminal blocks.
2) Should I use an insulated wire ferrule or a fork or ring terminal on stranded control wire?
A ferrule like the F2033 is what you want when the conductor lands in a screw or cage-clamp terminal block, as in a control panel or VFD enclosure. It gathers the strands into a solid copper pin so nothing frays out under the clamp. Fork and ring terminals are for landing on a screw or stud, not into a clamp. For 16 AWG stranded control wire into terminal blocks, the ferrule is the right part.
3) Do I need a special crimper for Sta-Kon insulated ferrules?
Yes. Insulated ferrules need a four-indent or trapezoidal ferrule crimping die, not a standard insulated-terminal nest. A hex or square crimp sized for 1.5 mm2 / 16 AWG is what forms the copper barrel correctly without splitting the polypropylene collar. Pliers or a generic terminal tool will give you a loose joint.
4) Is the black ferrule color on 1.5 mm2 wire ferrules a size code?
Black is the insulation color on the F2033, and on metric ferrules the sleeve color is how electricians identify the conductor size at a glance. Here black corresponds to the 1.5 mm2 / 16 AWG ferrule, so a panel wired with these can be checked without pulling a conductor out of the terminal.
5) What material is the barrel on the F2033 ferrule, and does the insulation hold up in a hot panel?
The barrel is copper, which is what gives it the crimp and conductivity you need on a control conductor. The insulating collar is polypropylene, which is the common choice on wire ferrules because it resists cracking when the ferrule is formed and stays on the conductor through pulling and routing.
6) Where is the Sta-Kon F2033 ferrule made, and what is the part number I order by?
Order it as Sta-Kon F2033, manufacturer part number F2033. It is made in Germany.
