Sta-Kon RA28 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RA28 female disconnect accept?
The RA28 is sized for 0.5 to 1.5 mm2 conductor, which is the red colour code range (roughly 22 to 16 AWG). If your conductor is heavier than 1.5 mm2, the barrel won't close on it properly and you need the next size up rather than forcing this one.
2) Female disconnect or male disconnect, which one goes on the wire feeding a switch terminal?
The RA28 is the female half, so it slides over a male tab or blade. Use it on the conductor side when the device (switch, relay, motor, contactor) presents the flat tab. If the device has a female receptacle instead, you want the male disconnect, not this one.
3) Is the red insulation on the RA28 disconnect just colour coding or does it mean something?
Both. Red is the standard crimp-terminal colour code for the smallest common wire band, and on the RA28 it corresponds to 0.5-1.5 mm2 wire. On a panel it lets an electrician confirm at a glance that the right size terminal went on the right conductor without pulling the lug.
4) What is the Sta-Kon RA28 insulated with, and will it hold up in a hot control cabinet?
The sleeve is polycarbonate. It's a rigid-but-tough insulator that resists cracking when the terminal is pushed and pulled off a tab repeatedly, which is why it shows up in control panels and junction boxes rather than the softer vinyl sleeves used on general-purpose terminals.
5) Do I need a special crimper for the Sta-Kon RA28 terminal?
It's an insulated barrel crimp, so it needs an insulated-terminal crimper with the red (0.5-1.5 mm2) nest, not a bare-terminal or non-insulated die. Crimping it with the wrong nest flattens the polycarbonate sleeve and the connection fails the pull test.
6) What part number do I order for the Sta-Kon red insulated female disconnect?
Order it as Sta-Kon RA28. That single model designation covers the red 0.5-1.5 mm2 polycarbonate insulated female disconnect; there are no finish or size choices to specify. It's manufactured in Sweden.
