Sta-Kon B250 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon B250 female disconnect crimp onto?
The B250 is sized for 16-14 AWG stranded wire, which is the standard range for control wiring, fan motors, and appliance leads. Crimp it with a tool matched to that barrel range. Using it on 12 AWG or on 18 AWG and smaller will not give you a reliable mechanical grip.
2) Will the Sta-Kon B250 fit a .250 x .032 male tab?
Yes. The B250 is a female quick-disconnect built for a 1/4 inch (.250) wide tab at .032 inch thickness, the most common blade size on motors, relays, switches and HVAC contactors. It will not seat correctly on a .187 or .110 tab.
3) Is the Sta-Kon B250 disconnect insulated?
No. The B250 is a bare brass terminal with no insulation and no nylon or vinyl sleeve. If the connection sits in a panel or box where adjacent terminals or a grounded enclosure could be contacted, sleeve it with heat shrink or use an insulated disconnect instead. Bare terminals are normal inside motor housings and high-temperature locations where plastic insulation would not survive.
4) Is the Sta-Kon B250 made in the USA for a buy-American spec job?
Country of origin on the B250 is the United States, which is what government, institutional and federally funded projects usually need documented on electrical terminations.
5) What part number should I order for a non-insulated 1/4 inch female disconnect for 16-14 wire?
Sta-Kon part number B250. One model covers the whole 16-14 AWG range on a .250 x .032 tab, so there is no size or color suffix to pick when you order.
6) Can I use the Sta-Kon B250 on a motor or contactor that runs hot?
Yes, and that is a common use. Because the B250 has no insulation to soften or shrink, it holds up where a vinyl or nylon sleeved disconnect would be at risk. The tradeoff is that the brass barrel and the tab are exposed, so keep clearance from the enclosure and from neighboring terminals, or add heat shrink over the crimp.
7) What is the Sta-Kon B250 terminal made of?
Brass, with a bare metallic finish. Brass gives good conductivity and takes a crimp well on 16-14 AWG copper conductor. In damp or corrosive environments a bare brass barrel will want protection, since there is no insulating sleeve covering the crimp.
