Sta-Kon RA1167 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon RA1167 fork terminal crimp onto?
The RA1167 is sized for 22 to 16 AWG stranded or solid copper wire. The red insulation is the standard color code for that range, so if you're grabbing terminals out of a bin, red means 22-16 AWG. For 16-14 AWG you need a blue-coded terminal instead, and for 12-10 AWG a yellow one.
2) What screw or stud size does the RA1167 fork terminal fit?
It's a No. 6 stud terminal, so the fork slot drops over a #6 screw or terminal post. That makes it a common fit for control terminal blocks, thermostats, small relays and low voltage device screws. If your terminal strip takes a #8 or #10 screw, the slot will be too narrow.
3) What voltage is the Sta-Kon RA1167 rated for, and can I use it in a 480 V control panel?
Rated 600 V, so it covers 120/208, 277 and 480 V control and power circuits as well as low voltage signal wiring. It's UL recognized under file E9809.
4) Is a fork terminal or a ring terminal the right choice for my terminal block?
A fork (spade) terminal like the RA1167 has an open slot, so it slides in under a screw you only have to loosen rather than remove. That's the usual pick for crowded control panels and terminal strips where pulling screws all the way out is a nuisance. A ring terminal is the safer choice where vibration or a code requirement means the conductor must be captive and can't slip off a loosened screw.
5) Are these fork terminals copper, and does the insulation cover the barrel?
The barrel is copper, which is what you want for copper building and control wire, and the vinyl insulation sleeves the barrel to keep the crimp from shorting against adjacent terminals on a tight strip. Vinyl is the general purpose insulation; if you need high heat resistance near a motor or heater, specify a nylon insulated terminal instead.
6) Is the Sta-Kon RA1167 made in the USA for a Buy American job?
Country of origin is the United States, which is what a government, school district or federal facility buyer needs on record for domestic sourcing requirements. The part is ordered as Sta-Kon RA1167.
7) Do I need a special crimper for Sta-Kon insulated terminals?
Yes, these are insulated barrel terminals and need an insulated-terminal crimp tool with the color coded nests, not a bare-terminal die and not pliers. Match the red nest to the red 22-16 AWG terminal so the barrel and insulation are both compressed in one stroke. A pulled crimp on a 600 V control circuit is the failure you're trying to avoid.
