Sta-Kon 10RC-250T INS VINYL MALE-250 TAB 12-10 YEL, 100 Pack

The 10RC-250T takes 12 to 10 AWG stranded wire, which is why the insulation is yellow. Yellow is the standard color code for the 12-10 AWG range in insulated crimp terminals, so if you are pulling 14 or 16 AWG you want a blue-barrel 16-14 terminal instead, not this one.

Yes. It is a 250 tab male disconnect, meaning a 1/4 inch (.250) wide blade, which is the most common quick-connect tab size in appliance, HVAC and motor wiring. It pairs with any .250 female disconnect or a .250 male tab on a switch, relay or contactor.

The male version terminates your wire in a flat .250 blade that plugs into a female disconnect or receptacle. The female version is the sleeve that slides over a tab. On a piece of equipment the tab is usually already on the device, so you buy female disconnects for the wire. You need this male 10RC-250T when you are extending a run, splicing wire to wire with a mating female, or feeding a component that has a female socket rather than a tab.

The barrel is brass with vinyl insulation. Brass crimps well and conducts cleanly for control and appliance-level loads. Vinyl is the general-purpose insulation grade, fine for typical panel and appliance work, but for high-heat locations near a furnace heat exchanger or burner, specify a nylon-insulated or non-insulated terminal with heat-shrink instead.

Use an insulated-terminal crimper on the yellow 12-10 AWG nest. The color-coded dies on a standard insulated crimp tool correspond directly to the barrel colors, so the yellow die is the one to use on this terminal. Do not crimp it with a non-insulated die or pliers, the vinyl sleeve will split.

Country of origin is the United States, which is what government, healthcare and school procurement buyers need for Buy American or domestic-preference documentation.

They ship 100 to a pack, which is the usual way an HVAC or maintenance shop stocks one wire-size terminal for the truck or the crib.

The 10RC-250T is a single configuration: yellow vinyl, brass barrel, 12-10 AWG, .250 male tab. There is no size or color choice on this part number. Smaller wire ranges are separate Sta-Kon part numbers with blue (16-14) or red (22-16) barrels.
