Sta-Kon RC363ML – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the Sta-Kon RC363ML ring terminal take?
The RC363ML is built for 12-10 AWG conductors. The yellow insulation is the standard color code for that range, so you can confirm the right barrel at a glance on a panel with mixed terminals. Anything smaller, like 16-14, will not grip reliably in this barrel even after crimping.
2) What does the LEFT REEL designation on the RC363ML mean, and can I crimp these by hand?
LEFT REEL means these ring terminals come strip-fed on a reel for automated or semi-automated crimping machines, not loose in a bag or box. If your shop is crimping with a hand tool, a loose-piece version of the same 12-10 AWG nylon ring is what you want. Order the reel only if you have the applicator set up for left-feed reeled terminals.
3) Should I use a ring terminal or a fork terminal on my 12-10 AWG wire?
A ring terminal like the RC363ML has to come off the stud entirely to be removed, which is exactly why it is specified for ground connections, vibration-prone equipment, and anywhere a loose screw could let the conductor walk out. A fork or spade tongue slides out sideways under a loosened screw, which makes servicing faster but is not acceptable on many ground and safety circuits. For a #10 ground screw on 12-10 wire, the ring is the correct choice.
4) Are Sta-Kon RC363ML terminals made in the USA?
Yes, the RC363ML nylon insulated ring terminal is manufactured in the United States. That matters on federal, state, and institutional jobs carrying domestic-content requirements, so it is worth noting on the submittal.
5) Is the insulation on the RC363ML nylon or vinyl, and does that matter?
Nylon. Nylon insulation on a ring terminal resists abrasion, cracking, and cut-through better than vinyl and takes higher operating temperatures, which is why it gets specified in motor terminal boxes, control panels, and anywhere the harness is pulled through a raceway. Vinyl-insulated rings are the lower-cost general-purpose alternative.
6) What part number do I give my supplier for this Sta-Kon yellow ring terminal?
Order it as Sta-Kon RC363ML. That single manufacturer part number covers the yellow nylon insulated ring terminal for 12-10 AWG wire with a No. 10 tongue on left reel, so there are no finish or size options to specify alongside it.
