Sta-Kon B14-6F – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a B14-6F fork terminal fit a #6 screw terminal block?
Yes. The B14-6F is sized for a No. 6 stud or screw, which is the common size on control terminal strips, relay bases and small terminal blocks. The fork (spade) tongue slides under a loosened screw without pulling the screw all the way out, which is why it gets specified over a ring tongue on dense terminal strips.
2) Is the Sta-Kon B14-6F terminal UL listed, and what voltage is it rated for?
It carries UL file E9809 and is rated 600 V. That covers standard commercial control and power circuits up to 600 volts, which is what an inspector or a spec writer on an institutional job is looking for on a terminal.
3) Does this Sta-Kon fork terminal come insulated, and do I need to sleeve it?
The B14-6F is a non-insulated terminal, bare metallic copper with no nylon or vinyl sleeve. If the terminals sit close together or the strip is exposed, plan on heat shrink or an insulating boot over the barrel. If you want the insulation built in, order an insulated fork terminal for 18-14 AWG and a No. 6 screw instead.
4) Should I use a fork terminal or a ring terminal on my terminal strip?
A fork terminal like the B14-6F is the choice when you need to pull or add a conductor without removing the screw entirely, which saves time on service work and on crowded control panels. A ring terminal is the choice where vibration or a code requirement demands a captive connection that cannot slip off a partly backed-out screw. Both here are for 18-14 AWG copper and a No. 6 screw.
5) Can I crimp a B14-6F with regular pliers or do I need a specific tool?
Use a crimper matched to non-insulated terminals. Non-insulated barrels are crimped with the indenter or nest style die, not the color-coded insulated die used for red and blue sleeved terminals. Pliers deform the copper barrel unevenly and give you a joint that heats up and backs out. Match the die to the 18-14 AWG range.
6) Is the Sta-Kon B14-6F made in the USA?
Country of origin is the United States. That matters on government, military and Buy American funded work where the terminal has to carry a domestic origin on the submittal.
7) What is the exact manufacturer part number for this Sta-Kon fork terminal?
The part is Sta-Kon B14-6F. In that designation the 14 points to the 18-14 AWG wire range and the 6F to a No. 6 fork tongue, so the adjacent numbers in the family are the same tongue on a different wire range or the same wire range on a different stud size.
