Sta-Kon PT70M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How many wires can the Sta-Kon PT70M wire joint take?
The PT70M is rated for a maximum of four No. 12 conductors and a minimum of three No. 18 conductors. That range is the whole decision on this part: if your bundle is five No. 12s, or a single No. 18 pigtail, it is outside what this joint is built to hold.
2) What is a pigtail wire joint used for instead of a standard splice connector?
A pigtail joint like the PT70M gives a terminating point for a group of wires all running in one direction, rather than joining wires coming from opposite sides. Typical use is gathering neutrals or grounds in a box or panel into one dead-end bundle. If you need a through-splice with conductors entering from two directions, this is not the right style.
3) Is the Sta-Kon PT70M wire joint UL listed?
Yes, it carries UL file E9809. For inspector-facing work in institutional or commercial panels that file reference is what gets cited on the submittal.
4) Can I use the Sta-Kon PT70M on mixed wire sizes in the same bundle?
Yes, within the stated range. The joint spans No. 18 through No. 12, so a bundle mixing those gauges is acceptable as long as the total count stays at or below four No. 12 equivalents and at least three No. 18 for the small end. Count the conductors before you crimp, since a loose underfilled barrel is the usual failure here.
5) Is the barrel on the PT70M metal or plastic, and is it insulated?
The crimp barrel is steel with a metallic finish, and it is a nylon insulated joint, so the insulation is over the barrel rather than the barrel being plastic itself. That means it crimps like a metal terminal and you get insulation coverage without adding tape.
6) Where is the Sta-Kon PT70M made?
It is manufactured in the United States, which matters on government and institutional jobs carrying domestic-sourcing requirements on electrical material.
