Where to buy small (Ramarine sized) spade connectors ?

[Boo2]

Hi,

I'm adding an MFD to Sunrunner's instrument setup and in the process several of the corroded spade terminals gave up the ghost and left their innards on the instrument terminals. I've got the bits off but now I need replacements and the ones I've got to hand are 1/4 inch whereas the Raymarine terminals on the ST60 etc are around half that size.

So if anyone knows where suitable female spade terminals in a smaller than standard size can be obtained then I'd be glad to know. I am in Brighton and somewhere local would be preferable to an internet purchase.

Thanks,

Boo2

Thanks again,

Hi Nigel, advantage of Maplin for me is I can pretty much reach them by spitting from where I live

Indeed, nobody with the time to order from a real supplier would buy anything from Maplin. But you can walk into one in any town 7 days a week, which means that sometimes a distress purchase from them is necessary.

And what do you do with the other 90 or so you don't need. 20p each and buy only as many as you need makes sense.

Had I seen this thread earlier, I would have offered some to the OP.

Try local independent motor supplies outlet. Sometimes called mini (size not the car) spade terminals. I'm lucky to get them just down the road for a price much closer to CPC/Farnell than Maplin.
