Sta-Kon 675-51973 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes does the Sta-Kon 675-51973 butt splice accept?
The Sta-Kon 675-51973 butt splice is rated for 9 to 6 AWG conductors. Both barrel ends take wire in that range, so it joins 6, 8, or 9 AWG copper end to end. Wire outside that range will either not seat in the barrel or will not crimp down tight enough to hold.
2) Can I use the Sta-Kon 675-51973 splice on bare wire without additional insulation?
No. The 675-51973 is a non-insulated butt splice, so the crimped barrel is exposed copper once the joint is made. You have to cover it yourself, with heat shrink tubing or tape, and the covered joint still needs to sit inside an approved enclosure or junction box. If you want the insulation built into the connector, choose an insulated butt splice in the same 9-6 AWG range instead.
3) Is the Sta-Kon 675-51973 butt splice suitable for aluminum conductors?
The 675-51973 barrel is copper, which makes it a copper-to-copper connector. Crimping aluminum conductors into a plain copper barrel sets up a dissimilar-metal joint that corrodes and loses contact pressure over time. For aluminum, use a connector specifically marked AL or AL/CU.
4) Do I need a special crimper for a 6 AWG non-insulated butt splice?
Yes. A 9-6 AWG non-insulated copper barrel is well past what a hand-squeeze insulated-terminal crimper will do. You need a heavy-duty ratcheting or hydraulic crimp tool with a die matched to the barrel size for bare copper lugs and splices. Pliers or a vise will not give a repeatable, gas-tight crimp on this size, and an under-crimped 6 AWG joint heats up under load.
5) Can I splice a 6 AWG wire to an 8 AWG wire with one connector?
Yes, within limits. The Sta-Kon 675-51973 barrel accepts 9 through 6 AWG at either end, so a 6 to 8 AWG transition sits inside its range. Crimp each side with the die for that conductor size rather than treating both ends the same. Stepping outside 9-6 AWG on either end means a different splice.
6) Is the Sta-Kon 675-51973 made in the USA?
Yes, the 675-51973 non-insulated butt splice has a country of origin of the United States, which is what institutional and government buyers working to domestic-sourcing requirements usually need confirmed before they commit.
7) What is the Sta-Kon part number to order for a 9-6 AWG bare butt splice?
Order Sta-Kon 675-51973. That is the single manufacturer part number for this non-insulated copper butt splice, covering the full 9-6 AWG range, so there is no size or finish option to pick on the order.
