Sta-Kon B132M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon B132M ring terminal crimp?
The B132M takes 18 to 14 AWG stranded copper wire, which covers the usual control, fixture, and low-voltage runs on commercial work. Anything heavier than 14 AWG needs a larger barrel terminal.
2) What stud or screw size does the B132M ring fit?
It is a No. 4 ring tongue, so it lands on a #4 stud or screw. On a larger terminal screw the ring will not pass over the threads, so step up to a bigger ring size rather than forcing it.
3) Is this ring terminal UL listed for electrical work?
The B132M carries UL file E9809. That is the reference an inspector or spec reviewer will want when the terminal goes into a listed panel or control assembly.
4) Is the Sta-Kon B132M insulated?
No. The B132M is a non-insulated ring terminal, bare copper with no sleeve. If the connection sits where it could contact a grounded enclosure or adjacent terminal, add heat shrink or use an insulated ring terminal instead.
5) Ring terminal or fork terminal for a 14 AWG lead on a #4 screw?
Use a ring like the B132M where the screw cannot be fully removed from service without the wire staying captive, which is most panel and motor terminations. A fork or spade slides out from under a loosened screw, which is faster for maintenance swaps but not acceptable where vibration or accidental loosening would drop the conductor. The B132M covers 18-14 AWG on a No. 4 stud.
6) Will the B132M terminal work on aluminum wire?
No. It is a copper terminal, rated for copper conductors in 18-14 AWG. Aluminum conductors need a terminal specifically marked AL or AL9CU.
7) Why do these ring terminals come on a Mylar strip instead of loose?
The B132M is supplied Mylar-strip mounted, which is what a production or bench crimper feeds. If you are crimping by hand with a plier-style tool, you break them off the strip one at a time, so loose terminals are easier for field punch-list work.
8) Are Sta-Kon B132M terminals made in the USA?
Country of origin is the United States, which matters if you are filling a government, institutional, or Buy American line item on a submittal.
