Sta-Kon RBD1823 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RBD1823 female disconnect crimp onto?
The RBD1823 is sized for 16-14 AWG stranded or solid copper wire, which is what the blue insulation color signals on a disconnect terminal. If you're terminating 22-18 AWG, you need the red-insulated size instead, and 12-10 AWG takes yellow.
2) Is the insulation on the Sta-Kon RBD1823 nylon or vinyl?
Nylon/polyamide, not vinyl. Nylon-insulated disconnects take more abrasion and crimp-tool pressure without splitting, and hold up better in hot equipment enclosures than the softer vinyl barrels. The barrel itself is brass.
3) Do I need a special crimper for a nylon insulated disconnect like this?
Use an insulated-terminal crimper matched to the 16-14 AWG blue color code. Nylon barrels resist deformation more than vinyl, so a cheap uncalibrated plier crimp often leaves an under-formed connection. A ratcheting insulated crimp tool with the blue die nest is what you want for the RBD1823.
4) What does the .83 in the Sta-Kon RBD1823 description refer to?
That is the .83 overall length of the terminal, the figure that matters when you're fitting several disconnects side by side inside a tight junction box or behind a switch plate.
5) Is the Sta-Kon RBD1823 made in the USA?
Country of origin is the United States, which matters if you're buying against a Buy American or domestic-preference clause on a government, healthcare or education project.
