Why Sta-Kon Terminals Are Better - continued

Selective Annealing

•DeepInternalSerrations

• Flat bottom box• Electro-tin plating• Center reinforced

spring detent lorminimum insertionforce

• Compound SpringRails providepositive contactafter repeatedinsertions

Because of the mechanical strength ofcopper, an installer can experiencefatigue associated with repeated instal-lations. For this reason Thomas & Bettsputs our terminals through one morestep called selective annealing. Thisprocess leaves the barrel soft enoughto crimp and form around the wire.However, we "cold form" the tongueduring the manufacturing process so it

remains strong. This is done so thetongue can withstand repeated

bends and bolt tighteningstrain common in most elec-

trical installations. Manycompetitors attempt toaccomplish similar goalsby removing valuablematerial or using a softer

copper which has lowerconductivity. This increases

electrical resistance as well as theodds for shorting and downtime.

Anti-Rotational TonguesThis is a unique feature to the Thomas& Betts ring tongue terminal. Thisdesign prevents terminal shorting bykeeping the terminal secure in the ter-minal block. The installer can place agreater number of terminals closertogether without worry.

Proper IdentificationWe identify all terminals with Thomas &Betts initials, T & B. We also indicatewire and stud sizes. These markingsare clearly visible on the surface of thetongue, taking any guesswork out ofreplacing or reordering additionalparts. Our superior bright plating alsoassists in visibility.

All Sta-Kon* Terminals areDebarred and DegreasedTo insure a Sta-Kon® terminal is proper-ly plated and insulated, all our parts areput through a process which cleansand smooths the terminal of any manu-facturing by-products, mainly grease,oils and sharp edges. Many competitiveproducts do not put their productthrough such rigorous finishing.

Platings/FinishElectroplated-Tin is standard. All othersrequire minimum order quantities andare generally not stocked. Alternativeplatings as follows: Gold, Silver, Tin-alloys, Nickel, etc.The following finishes are available onmost one-piece Sta-Kon® terminals:

• Complete line of installing tools engineered to match tool with terminal.• First to gain military approval for pressure connections ... many styles available for

military applications.• Sta-Kon® products exceed test specification requirements of military, U.L. and CSA.• TEFZEL® & Nylon Terminals provided with extra metal sleeve to grip insulation.• Vinyl insulated and bare Sta-Kon® terminals feature brazed seam wire barrels which

can be crimped at any place on the barrel circumference.

Sta-Kon* Disconnects• Internal barrel serrations and long barrel provide for maximum tensile strength.• Complete line of installing tools, engineered to match tool with terminal.• Funnel entry insulators allow for easier inserting of wire into barrel.• Color-coded for easy installation.

The Shure Stake" Tools are Matched to TerminalsThe Shure Stake" mechanism prevents the dies from releasing the terminal untilthe proper compression has been completed. With this method, an operatorachieves a reliable crimp everytime. Thomas & Setts' tooling techniques correctlymatch tools, wire size and terminal to produce optimum mechanical and electricalperformance.

Design Controls and RequirementsAll "MADE-UP" catalog numbers start with a standard or basic catalog number and are followed by the customer required extra

features: tongue shape, bolt hole size, distance between bolt holes, stacking, plating and inspection hole (peep hole). A codeletter or a number has been assigned to each extra feature. See CODE TABLE.

NOTES: 1) Lack of any of the extra features on the "MADE-UP" catalog number means that the standard Cat. No. features areprevalent.

2) If either bolt hole size or distance between bolt holes needs to be changed from standard Cat. No., both code num-bers will appear on the "MADE-UP" Cat. No. (See example below)
