Sta-Kon 14RB-10CP – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Sta-Kon 14RB-10CP ring terminal crimp onto?
The 14RB-10CP takes 18 to 14 AWG stranded copper wire. The blue insulation is the standard color code for that 18-14 range, so on a panel where crimps are color-sorted this one reads as the mid-size barrel. If your conductor is 12 or 10 AWG you need a yellow-barrel terminal instead, and 22-16 wire calls for a red one.
2) What stud or screw size does this blue ring terminal fit?
The ring is sized for a No. 10 stud or screw. It will slip over a #10 machine screw, and also over smaller #8 or #6 hardware if you use a washer to keep the tongue from pulling through. It will not go over a 1/4 inch stud.
3) Is a ring terminal or a fork terminal better for a motor or control panel connection?
A ring terminal like the 14RB-10CP is the right choice anywhere vibration or a safety circuit is involved, because the closed tongue cannot back off the stud if the screw loosens. A fork (spade) terminal is only worth using when you need to pull the wire off without removing the screw entirely, such as dense terminal strips you service often. For motor leads, line voltage controls, and grounding, use the ring.
4) Is the Sta-Kon 14RB-10CP UL listed?
Yes, it carries UL file E9809. That is the detail institutional and MRO buyers need for inspected work, and it is listed alongside the 600 V rating.
5) Is this ring terminal copper or aluminum, and can I put it on aluminum wire?
The barrel is copper, so it is for copper conductors only. Crimping a copper terminal onto aluminum wire creates a dissimilar-metal joint that corrodes and loosens, so aluminum branch circuits need an AL/CU rated connector instead.
6) Do I need a special crimp tool for Sta-Kon insulated terminals?
Use an insulated-terminal crimper with the color-coded nest matched to blue, which is the 18-14 AWG die. A plain uninsulated-lug tool or pliers will cut the vinyl sleeve and leave a joint that pulls out. Strip the conductor only far enough that it bottoms in the barrel with no bare copper showing past the sleeve.
7) Are these ring terminals made in the USA?
Yes. The 14RB-10CP is manufactured in the United States, which matters on federal, military, and other Buy American procurement where country of origin has to be documented on the submittal.
