5mm Male Spade Terminals

Post by alexwitham » Wed Jan 25, 2012 7:49 pm

Guys,

Can anyone help me with where to buy these from?

I've been to Halfords, Wilco's, KwikFit, Local Garages and no bugger has them, the smallest size I can find is 6.3mm.

eBay doesn't even have them!

I need them to wire up my front brake light switch.

Thanks,

I presume you mean 4.8mm? I can get them by the pallet load if I need them.

Let me know if you want reds or blues, male or female. They're only about £3 per 100 at my trade outlet.

BTW, I think you'll find it's the females you need :peace: I have some females in the workshop (think they're red but they might be blue), PM me your address and I'll pop a few in a Jiffy bag tomorrow for you.

Definitely male spades, 4.8mm is correct. You're thinking of females because you think I have a standard brake set up ;-)

If anyone has a couple of 4.8male spade terminals (red) then I'd give you a beer token if you post me some!

Thank you

Alex

I've got around 2000 of them in 0.5mm thickness and 0.8mm thickness if you ever need any more :peace:
