Sta-Kon C252GM – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon C252GM flag disconnect crimp onto?
The C252GM takes 12 to 10 AWG conductors. Smaller wire, like 16-14 or 22-18, will not crimp reliably in this barrel, so match the terminal to the actual conductor size rather than the tool setting you happen to have loaded.
2) Is the Sta-Kon C252GM disconnect insulated?
No. It is a bare, non-insulated terminal with no sleeve or nylon body. If the connection needs covering, you add heat shrink or a separate insulating cap, or you rely on the enclosure. For a tight terminal block where an insulated barrel would not fit, that bare barrel is the point.
3) Why use a 90 degree flag disconnect instead of a straight female quick disconnect?
A flag terminal brings the wire in at a right angle to the tab, so the conductor runs parallel to the face of the device instead of standing off it. That is what you want behind a contactor, relay, or switch where there is no depth for the wire to exit straight back. A straight female disconnect is the simpler choice any time you have room behind the tab.
4) What is the Sta-Kon C252GM made of, and can I use it on aluminum wire?
The terminal body is copper, so it is intended for copper conductors. Aluminum wire needs a terminal rated for aluminum or a dual-rated AL/CU connector; putting aluminum into a copper-only barrel risks a bad joint over time.
5) Is the Sta-Kon C252GM a male or female disconnect?
Female. It is the receptacle half that slides onto a male spade tab on the device. If the equipment side presents a socket rather than a tab, you need the male counterpart instead.
6) Does the C252GM need a special crimp tool?
It is a non-insulated barrel, so it crimps with a non-insulated terminal die, not the color-coded insulated nest. Set the tool for 12-10 AWG. Using an insulated die on a bare barrel deforms it and gives you a loose, high-resistance joint.
7) Is the Sta-Kon C252GM terminal made in the USA?
Yes, country of origin is the United States. That matters on public works and federal jobs carrying domestic sourcing requirements, so it is worth noting on the submittal.
