Sta-Kon A114 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauge does the Sta-Kon A114 fork terminal crimp onto?
The A114 is rated for 22 to 16 AWG stranded wire. Anything larger, like 14 AWG, will not seat in the barrel and cannot be crimped reliably, so step up to the next barrel size in the same family for those conductors.
2) What screw size does the A114 spade terminal fit?
It is a No. 8 fork terminal, so it slips over a #8 screw or stud. The open fork means you can loosen the terminal screw and slide the connector off sideways without pulling the screw all the way out, which is why techs like these on control panels and thermostat strips.
3) Is the Sta-Kon A114 insulated or bare?
Bare. It is a non-insulated copper fork terminal with a metallic finish, so if the connection needs covering you have to add heat shrink or a nylon insulating sleeve yourself. On terminal blocks inside an enclosure that is usually fine; in an open junction or where adjacent terminals are close, use an insulated version instead.
4) Is the Sta-Kon A114 UL recognized for inspected commercial work?
It is covered under UL file E9809. That is the reference an inspector or spec writer will want when the drawing calls for listed terminations.
5) Is the A114 made of copper or aluminum, and can I put it on aluminum wire?
The barrel is copper, so use it on copper conductors only. Copper terminals on aluminum wire create a dissimilar-metal joint that corrodes and loosens; aluminum conductors need a connector specifically rated AL or AL/CU.
6) Do I need a special crimper for the Sta-Kon A114, or will a standard tool work?
It is a non-insulated barrel, so it needs the bare-terminal nest of a crimper, not the color-coded insulated die. Non-insulated barrels are typically crimped with an indent or oval die matched to the 22-16 AWG range; using an insulated-terminal die will crush the barrel and give you a loose joint.
7) Fork terminal or ring terminal for a control panel terminal strip?
A fork like the A114 comes off without removing the screw, so it is faster for service work and re-terminations on a No. 8 screw. A ring terminal is captive and will not shake loose under vibration, so pick a ring for motor leads, rolling stock, or anything that vibrates, and the fork for panel and thermostat work you expect to open again.
8) Is the Sta-Kon A114 made in the USA?
Yes, country of origin is the United States, which matters if you are filling a government or institutional order with domestic-content requirements.
