Sta-Kon RB2233ML – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon RB2233ML fork terminal take?
The RB2233ML is sized for 18-14 AWG stranded or solid copper wire. That is the blue insulation range under the standard color code, and the barrel is color keyed blue to match. Anything heavier than 14 AWG will not seat in the barrel, and 16 to 18 AWG is at the small end of the crimp window.
2) What does the locking part of a nylon insulated locking fork terminal do?
The fork tines on the RB2233ML have a locking profile so the terminal resists backing off the screw once it is tightened, unlike a plain spade that can slip out sideways if the screw loosens under vibration. You still get the fast install of a fork, because the screw only needs to be backed off, not removed.
3) Are these Sta-Kon forks loose in a bag or on a reel?
The RB2233ML comes on a left-hand reel, which is the feed orientation for automatic and semi-automatic crimping machines. If you are crimping by hand with a plier tool, you want loose piece terminals instead; reeled strip is meant to be machine fed.
4) Is the insulation on this Sta-Kon terminal nylon or vinyl?
Nylon. Nylon sleeves on the RB2233ML hold up better to abrasion and higher temperature than vinyl insulation, and they resist cut-through when the terminal is pulled into a tight raceway or bundled behind a panel. If your spec calls out vinyl insulated, this is not the same part.
5) Where are Sta-Kon RB2233ML terminals made?
Made in the United States. That matters on federal, state and institutional jobs carrying domestic sourcing language, where a buyer has to document country of origin on electrical consumables the same as on the major equipment.
6) Can I order the RB2233ML in a different color?
No. The RB2233ML is a single configuration, blue, 18-14 AWG, No. 8 fork on a left reel. The blue is not cosmetic, it identifies the wire range, so a red or yellow terminal would be a different gauge part number entirely.
