Sta-Kon F2043 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon F2043 ferrule take?
The F2043 ferrule is sized for 8 AWG wire, which is the 10 mm2 metric equivalent called out on the part. If you are terminating 10 or 12 AWG, this barrel is too large to crimp down reliably and you need a smaller ferrule in the series.
2) Are Sta-Kon F2043 ferrules UL recognized for control panel work?
They carry UL file E489056. That is the reference an inspector or panel-shop QA will want on record for the terminations.
3) How long is the barrel on the F2043 wire ferrule, and how much insulation do I strip?
Barrel length is .827 inches, so strip roughly that much insulation off the conductor so the copper bottoms out in the sleeve without leaving bare wire past the ferrule collar.
4) Will the F2043 ferrule work in a screw-clamp terminal block for stranded 8 AWG?
That is what it is for. The copper barrel compresses the strands into a solid pin so a screw-clamp or spring-cage terminal rated for 8 AWG / 10 mm2 clamps evenly instead of splaying the strands. Match the terminal's accepted conductor size to 8 AWG before committing.
5) Do I need a special crimper for 8 AWG insulated ferrules?
Yes. A 10 mm2 ferrule needs a ferrule crimper whose die range covers that size, typically a four-indent or hex crimp tool. The part number F2043 is the ferrule only, no tool is included.
6) Is the red insulated ferrule color a size code or just cosmetic?
Red on the F2043 is the insulation color for this size, which is how electricians sort ferrules in a panel build at a glance. The sleeve itself is polypropylene over a copper barrel.
7) How many Sta-Kon F2043 ferrules come in a pack?
The F2043 is packaged 100 pieces per pack, which is typical for a single panel build or a service truck restock.
8) Where are Sta-Kon F2043 ferrules made?
Country of origin is Germany. Procurement groups that track origin for bid documentation can cite that directly, along with UL file E489056.
