Sta-Kon F4024 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon F4024 ferrule take?
The F4024 wire ferrule is sized for 18-17 AWG conductor, which is the 1 mm2 cross-section under the old DIN color code. If you're terminating 16 AWG or larger stranded wire, you need a larger ferrule; crimping oversized wire into this barrel won't give you a sound termination.
2) Do I need a special crimper for insulated wire ferrules like the F4024?
Yes, use a ferrule crimper, not a standard insulated-terminal tool. Ferrules need a square or hex four-indent die sized to the conductor cross-section, in this case 1 mm2 / 18-17 AWG. A butt-splice or ring-terminal crimper puts an oval dimple in the barrel and the result will not sit square in a terminal block clamp.
3) Why use a ferrule instead of just putting bare stranded wire into a terminal block?
A ferrule like the F4024 gathers the strands of a 1 mm2 (18-17 AWG) conductor into one solid pin, so nothing frays out of the clamp, nothing bridges to the adjacent terminal, and the screw pressure stays even over time instead of cold-flowing the loose strands. On fine-stranded control wire it is often required by the terminal block manufacturer's instructions.
4) What is the F4024 ferrule made of, and will the insulation hold up to a soldering iron or heat gun nearby?
Barrel is copper, with a polypropylene insulating collar. Copper gives you the conductivity and the crimp ductility you want on a stranded-wire termination. Polypropylene is a thermoplastic, so keep direct flame, heat guns, and soldering irons off the collar; it is not a nylon or PA sleeve.
5) What is the exact part number to order the Sta-Kon 1 mm2 red ferrule?
Order Sta-Kon part F4024. That is the manufacturer part number for the insulated polypropylene ferrule in red, 18-17 AWG / 1 mm2 old DIN. It is made in Germany.
