Sta-Kon F8010 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon F8010 twin ferrule take?
The F8010 is a twin ferrule sized for two 12 AWG conductors, which is the metric 4.00 mm2 equivalent. Both wires go into the single barrel and get crimped together, so don't use it for a pair of mismatched gauges.
2) When do I use a twin ferrule instead of two single ferrules?
Use a twin ferrule like the F8010 when two conductors have to land in one terminal, typically a daisy-chain or jumper between adjacent terminal blocks. Two single ferrules stuffed into one clamp is the thing inspectors flag, since neither wire seats properly. If each conductor gets its own terminal, use single ferrules instead.
3) Do I need a special crimper for the Sta-Kon F8010 twin ferrule?
Yes. Ferrules need a four-indent or hex ferrule crimper set for 4.00 mm2, not a standard insulated-terminal tool. A twin ferrule also needs the die to compress the full barrel evenly with both 12 AWG conductors inserted, so the tool has to cover that range.
4) What is the F8010 ferrule barrel and insulation made of?
Copper barrel with a polypropylene insulating collar. Copper is what gives you the conductivity and the plastic sleeve keeps the strands corralled while you feed the pair into the terminal.
5) What color is the 12 AWG twin ferrule, and does the color mean anything?
The F8010 collar is grey. On ferrules the collar color is the gauge code, so grey on a panel tells the next electrician the termination is a 4.00 mm2 / 12 AWG twin without pulling it apart. Keep the color convention consistent across a panel if you're standardizing.
