Sta-Kon B482 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon B482 ring terminal crimp onto?
The B482 is sized for 16-14 AWG conductors. Anything larger than 14 AWG won't seat in the barrel, and anything smaller than 16 AWG will not hold a reliable crimp, so for 12-10 AWG you need the next barrel size up in the same ring terminal family.
2) Is the Sta-Kon B482 ring terminal insulated, and do I need to add insulation?
No insulation. The B482 is a bare copper tongue and barrel, so if the connection sits in a panel or box where adjacent terminals or a metal enclosure could be contacted, sleeve the crimp with heat shrink or tape it. Where an insulated barrel is required by spec, use a vinyl or nylon insulated ring terminal instead.
3) What is a rectangular tongue ring terminal good for versus a standard round-tongue ring?
The rectangular tongue on the B482 gives a flat, squared contact pad, which is useful on narrow terminal blocks and strips where the tongue has to sit between adjacent screws without spreading sideways into the neighbor. A round tongue is the general-purpose choice when space around the stud isn't tight. Both are closed-ring, so either one stays captive on the stud when the screw backs off, unlike a spade or fork terminal.
4) Will aluminum wire work in the Sta-Kon B482?
No. The B482 barrel is copper and is intended for copper conductors. Aluminum wire needs a terminal rated AL or AL/CU with the appropriate inhibitor compound.
5) Do non-insulated Sta-Kon terminals need a special crimp tool?
Yes, a non-insulated crimp die, not the color-coded insulated-barrel nest. Non-insulated barrels like the B482 are crimped with an indenter or oval die that forms the bare metal directly; running one through an insulated nest gives an under-formed crimp. Match the die to the 16-14 AWG barrel range.
6) Is the Sta-Kon B482 made in the USA?
Yes, country of origin is the United States, which matters on federal and institutional jobs carrying domestic-sourcing requirements.
