Sta-Kon RJ717NP – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RJ717NP ring terminal take?
The RJ717NP is sized for 2/0 AWG conductor. It is a single-size barrel, so it should not be used on smaller cable like 1/0 or 3/0 without the correct terminal for that gauge, since a crimp on an undersized conductor will not hold mechanically or electrically.
2) What stud size does the Sta-Kon RJ717NP ring fit?
The RJ717NP ring tongue is drilled for a 3/8 inch stud, which is the common size on battery posts, panel bus bars, and large breaker lugs. If your terminal block uses 1/4 or 5/16 hardware, you need a different ring tongue, not a washer workaround.
3) Is the Sta-Kon RJ717NP terminal copper or aluminum, and is it plated?
It is a nickel plated terminal with a nylon insulating sleeve over the barrel. Nickel plating is the finish to use where the connection sees heat or a corrosive environment rather than a standard tin plated ring.
4) Can I crimp a 2/0 Sta-Kon RJ717NP ring with hand crimpers?
No. A 2/0 AWG barrel needs a hydraulic or heavy mechanical crimper with the correct die for that gauge. Standard hand crimp pliers made for 22 to 10 AWG insulated terminals will not compress this barrel to a sound connection.
5) What does the blue color on this Sta-Kon ring terminal mean?
The RJ717NP insulation sleeve is blue. On heavy gauge nylon insulated rings the sleeve color is a manufacturer identifier for the barrel size rather than the small-gauge red/blue/yellow convention, so match the terminal to the stated 2/0 AWG conductor size and the 3/8 inch stud, not to the color.
6) Does the nylon insulation on the RJ717NP need extra heat shrink?
The nylon sleeve is part of the terminal and insulates the barrel and the crimp area on its own. Many electricians still add adhesive lined shrink over the barrel-to-cable transition on battery and outdoor runs for strain relief and moisture sealing, but the terminal itself ships insulated.
7) Where is the Sta-Kon RJ717NP made?
Country of origin on the RJ717NP is Mexico, which is the detail procurement teams need for domestic preference or trade documentation on a submittal.
