Sta-Kon E73 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size and bolt size does the Sta-Kon E73 ring terminal take?
The Sta-Kon E73 is sized for 6 AWG conductor and a 3/8 inch bolt or stud. If your conductor is a different gauge, the barrel won't crimp to the right compression, so match the wire gauge first and the stud diameter second.
2) Is the E73 terminal insulated, and does it need heat shrink or tape after crimping?
It's a non-insulated ring terminal, so the barrel is bare copper with no sleeve. On anything that needs the connection covered, add heat shrink tubing or a nylon sleeve yourself. Non-insulated is what you want when you're going into a lug compartment or under a cover where insulation would get in the way, or when you plan to shrink over it anyway.
3) Is the E73 ring terminal UL listed for inspection sign-off?
Yes. The E73 is covered under UL file E9809, which is what an inspector or a spec writer looks for on a terminal going into panel or motor termination work. Keep in mind UL listing applies to the terminal crimped with the proper die, so use the crimp tool specified for a 6 AWG non-insulated barrel.
4) Will a copper ring terminal like the E73 work on aluminum conductor?
No. The E73 barrel is copper and is for copper conductor only. Aluminum needs a terminal marked AL or AL9CU with the right inhibitor compound, otherwise you get galvanic corrosion at the joint and a failing connection over time.
5) Ring terminal or fork (spade) terminal for a 3/8 inch ground stud?
Use the ring style like the E73 for anything that carries vibration, load, or a ground bond. The closed ring can't back off the stud if the nut loosens, where a fork terminal can slide out sideways. Fork terminals only make sense on terminal strips you service often and where losing the connection isn't a safety issue. For a 3/8 inch stud on 6 AWG, the ring is the right call.
6) Is the Sta-Kon E73 made in the USA? I'm on a Buy American job.
Country of origin on the E73 is the United States, which is what procurement needs on federal, municipal, and institutional work with domestic-content requirements. Order documentation should still be matched against the specific clause on your contract, since Buy American and BABA thresholds differ.
7) What's the exact part number to order for a 6 AWG, 3/8 inch stud non-insulated ring terminal from Sta-Kon?
Order Sta-Kon E73. That's the manufacturer part number for the bare copper ring tongue terminal sized to 6 AWG with a 3/8 inch bolt hole, rated 600 V. There's a single model on it, so there are no finish or pack options to specify.
