Sta-Kon 10RC-14FL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon 10RC-14FL fork terminal crimp onto?
The 10RC-14FL takes 12 to 10 AWG stranded copper wire. That is the yellow color code on insulated terminals, so if you are sorting a bin by sleeve color, yellow is your 12-10 range. Run it on 14 AWG or smaller and the barrel will not grip reliably.
2) Is this terminal rated for 600 volt control and panel wiring?
Yes, the 10RC-14FL carries a 600 V rating, which covers typical 480 V and 600 V motor control, panelboard, and control-circuit terminations. The vinyl sleeve is the insulating element at that rating, so do not strip or cut the sleeve back.
3) Is the Sta-Kon 10RC-14FL UL listed for an inspected commercial job?
It is covered under UL file E9809. If your inspector or spec sheet asks for a UL recognized or listed terminal on 600 V control wiring, that file number is the reference to cite.
4) What does the "locking" part of a locking fork terminal actually do?
The tongue has upturned tips that catch behind the screw head, so once the screw is tightened the terminal cannot pull straight back out of the connection. It is what makes a spade usable where a plain fork would be a vibration risk, while still letting you drop it under a screw rather than removing the screw. The 10RC-14FL is that locking style with a vinyl insulating sleeve over the barrel.
5) Do I need a special crimp tool for these Sta-Kon terminals?
Crimp it with a tool jawed for insulated terminals in the 12-10 AWG yellow range. Using the red (22-18) or blue (16-14) nest will under-crimp a 12-10 barrel and leave a high-resistance joint. The barrel is copper, so it crimps cold without any heat or solder.
6) Are these terminals made in the USA for a Buy American job?
Country of origin on the 10RC-14FL is the United States, which is the answer most government, institutional, and federally funded procurement packages need on record for electrical consumables.
