Sta-Kon A85M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon A85M ring terminal crimp?
The A85M is built for 22 to 16 AWG stranded copper conductors. Anything heavier than 16 AWG will not seat in the barrel, and a conductor smaller than 22 AWG leaves the crimp loose. For larger wire you need a different Sta-Kon barrel size.
2) Is the A85M terminal UL recognized for an inspected installation?
The A85M carries UL file E9809. That is the citation an inspector or spec reviewer will want for a 600 V termination in a panelboard or control enclosure.
3) Is this ring terminal insulated, and does that matter for a crowded panel?
It is a non-insulated ring terminal, bare copper with no sleeve. In a tight panelboard or wiring harness where adjacent terminations could touch, you add heat shrink or sleeving yourself, or choose an insulated terminal instead. Non-insulated is the usual pick where a boot or harness tape already covers the joint.
4) What voltage can the Sta-Kon A85M be used at?
Rated 600 V, which covers standard panelboard, control, and branch circuit work as well as low voltage automotive and telecom terminations.
5) Is the Sta-Kon A85M made in the USA for a government or institutional order?
Country of origin is the United States, which is what procurement needs for domestic-preference and Buy American documentation on government, healthcare, and education jobs.
6) What does the Mylar packaging on the A85M mean?
The A85M comes Mylar packed, meaning the terminals are carried on a Mylar strip rather than loose in a bag. It keeps the parts oriented and is what harness shops and production benches use for repeat terminations.
7) Can I solder this terminal instead of crimping it?
The A85M is a bare copper tongue with no insulating sleeve to melt back, so there is nothing in the construction that a soldering iron will damage. It is still a crimp terminal by design and the UL E9809 recognition applies to crimped terminations, so crimp with the correct Sta-Kon die for 22-16 AWG and treat solder as supplementary at most.
