Sta-Kon RBD1827 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RBD1827 blue female disconnect take?
The RBD1827 is sized for 16-14 AWG stranded wire, which is what the blue insulation color signals on a crimp terminal. Strip and crimp with a tool matched to the 16-14 range; using it on 12 AWG or on 18-22 AWG (red) wire gives you a crimp that pulls out.
2) Do I need a special crimper for Sta-Kon RBD1827 terminals?
Use an insulated-terminal crimper on the blue (16-14 AWG) nest. A generic plier-style crimper will often deform the vinyl without fully compressing the brass barrel, and that joint heats up under load. Nothing else ships with the terminal, so the tool is on you.
3) What is the RBD1827 terminal made of, and how is it insulated?
Brass barrel and contact with a vinyl insulating sleeve over the crimp. Vinyl is fine for general control and appliance wiring at normal ambient temperatures; for high heat near a furnace or motor housing, a nylon or non-insulated terminal with heat shrink is the better call.
4) Is this a fully insulated disconnect or will the tab end be exposed?
The vinyl sleeve covers the crimp barrel and the body of the female disconnect, so the connection is insulated once pushed onto the tab. It is the standard color-coded vinyl style used in control panels where terminals sit close together.
