Sta-Kon RB484-SC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RB484-SC ring terminal take?
The RB484-SC is sized for 16-14 AWG stranded or solid copper wire. Blue is the standard color code for that range on nylon insulated terminals, so a bin of blue barrels on the truck is the same gauge window. For 22-18 AWG you need a red terminal, and for 12-10 AWG a yellow one.
2) What stud or screw size does the RB484-SC ring fit?
It is a No. 6 ring, so it drops over a #6 screw or stud, typical of control panel terminal blocks, small ground screws, and device terminals. Going up to a #8 or #10 stud means a different ring size, not this part.
3) Is the insulation on the Sta-Kon RB484-SC nylon or vinyl?
Nylon. Nylon insulated barrels hold up better to abrasion and crush than vinyl when a bundle is pulled through a raceway or packed tight in a panel, which is why spec jobs often call out nylon specifically.
4) Should I use a ring terminal or a fork (spade) terminal on a panel terminal block?
A ring like the RB484-SC has to be removed from the screw to come off, so it cannot vibrate loose or slip out under a partly backed off screw. That is what you want on motor leads, ground screws, and anything subject to vibration. A fork terminal slides out sideways, which is faster for service work where you are disconnecting frequently, but it is the wrong choice where connection integrity matters.
5) Can I crimp the RB484-SC with standard pliers?
No. Nylon insulated terminals in the 16-14 AWG range need an insulated-terminal crimp tool with the correct color-coded nest (blue for this gauge). Pliers or a non-insulated die will split the nylon sleeve or leave the barrel under-crimped, and the connection pulls out. No solder is required with a proper crimp.
6) Is the Sta-Kon RB484-SC made in the USA?
Country of origin is the United States, which matters if you are filling a government, institutional, or Buy American flagged order and need domestic sourcing documented on electrical consumables.
7) What does the RB484-SC part number mean, and what is the SC suffix?
RB484-SC is the Sta-Kon manufacturer part number for the nylon insulated rectangular-tongue ring terminal, 16-14 AWG, No. 6 stud, blue. Order by that exact designation; adjacent Sta-Kon RB numbers change the stud size or the wire range.
