Sta-Kon G973UNP – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon G973UNP ring terminal take?
The G973UNP is built for 2 AWG copper conductor. It is a one-size barrel, so smaller gauge wire will not crimp up properly in it and larger will not enter the barrel. If your feeder is 1/0 or 4 AWG, you need a different terminal in the series.
2) Why would I use a 90 degree ring terminal instead of a straight one?
The G973UNP is a right angle (90 degree) ring terminal, meaning the tongue turns perpendicular to the barrel. That lets a heavy 2 AWG conductor come in from the side or from below and land flat on a stud without bending the cable itself, which is what you want in a tight panel, enclosure gutter, or on a stacked bus where a straight tongue would force a sharp radius in the conductor.
3) Is the Sta-Kon G973UNP insulated?
No. It is a non-insulated terminal, bare metal barrel and tongue. If the installation needs the barrel covered, you add heat shrink or tape over the crimp yourself after crimping. In most 2 AWG panel and ground applications the lug is left bare.
4) Do I need a special crimp tool for a 2 AWG Sta-Kon terminal?
Yes. At 2 AWG this is a heavy barrel lug, not something a hand squeeze tool for 22-10 AWG will close. You need a hydraulic or large mechanical crimper with the correct die for the barrel. The terminal itself ships bare, with no hardware, so the stud bolt, washers, and any insulating sleeve are separate.
5) Is this terminal nickel plated, and does that matter for aluminum or high temperature work?
The G973UNP is nickel plated. Nickel plating is the finish specified where tin would be marginal, typically higher operating temperature terminations and locations where corrosion resistance at the bolted joint matters. If you are terminating in a standard dry interior panel at normal temperature, a tin plated lug is the usual choice instead.
6) Where is the Sta-Kon G973UNP made?
Country of origin is Mexico. For procurement paperwork, the manufacturer part number to reference is G973UNP under the Sta-Kon brand.
