Heavy heat shrink ring terminals

[jrsavoie]

I have / had some nice 3/16, 1/4, 5/16 & 3/8 heat shrink eyelets/ ring terminals. In blue and yellow

The ring parts are heavier, as big in diameter as the corresponding nuts

I don't know how long ago I got them. I got them by the bag of each.
The marking says JK, wire gauge and diameters.
I haven't been able to find replacements. I don't care about the same brand.

Probably like most things I like, discontinued.

These look like they'd work. Other than it says the items might not look like the pictures.

And the quantities are a bit more than I need, and so being, the prices are a bit more also.

I don't remember the bag quantities I bought last time

I didn't even Know the American Federation of Teachers had anything to do with terminals

McMaster has a good selection and relatively small quantity requirements.

Excellent terminals and vendor for smaller orders: https://monsterbolts.com/products/nspa-ring-ks110?variant=31268787716179

Good makers for these: NSPA, FTZ, Molex, Ancor (who relabels others').

I believe these will work

I use marine-grade heat shrink terminals from Ancor and NSPA on my boats.

I get them from a variety of sources both online and locally depending on the situation.

This place has great prices but the shipping is pricey for a small order:

Heat Shrink Terminals

I've been happy with these in the past, but generally I usually use the "high temperature" bare metal terminals from McMaster (they are pretty beefy) and add my own heat shrink (mostly because I don't like seeing the different colors)

Heat Shrink & Crimp Ring Terminals - 22-18 Gauge

Heat shrink ring terminals available in different sizes. The heat shrink material completely seals the terminal and is the most durable insulation type for electrical connections.

I bought a few different assortments from amazon just to have around. I'm sure they are cheap chinese stuff but have worked for me for when I need one or two here and there and seem to be decent quality.

I went through this a fw months ago. I'm not a huge user of these things, but when I use one, I want a good one, and I want to have it now, not after waiting or going to a store. I ended up buying non-insulated ones from Molex. I almost always would put shrink tube on them, so that's not an issue for me. I had to buy three assortments (one each quick-disconnect, ring, and spades), and it wasn't cheap, but it's a liefetime supply of many of them, and ones I actually use can be bought in smallish quantities.

 

[jrsavoie]

Waiting is just about as fast as going to the store here. Usually a lot faster, if you're picky.

Going to the store is about a 2 hour round trip. 45 minutes each way and at least 1/2 hour wasted. That's if they actually have something to buy at the first store visited.

Nobody seems to stock anything but cheap **** anymore.

It's a huge time saver to stock things I need.

Just about always cheaper to over stock than one trip to the store.

Say .50 per mile x 60 miles

this is why I use McMaster for most things. It costs more for sure, but it's always good quality.

And sometimes you get same day shipping. I've ordered in the morning and got stuff in the afternoon

I should have double checked OD before ordering.
I'm returning these.

The good ring terminals / eyelets have outside diameters of about - 3/8" eyelet - .725" / 18.48mm



5/16" eyelet about - .633" / 16.12mm
