Barbed pcb wire crimped end
« on: June 24, 2015, 04:36:21 am »
Hi all. Just looking to find out what these things are called. They go on the end of a wire that is then inserted through a pcb hole and the barb makes sure that the wire is held securely until it is soldered. I want to find out what they are called so I can get some drawings etc as regards what pcb hole size to use with what sized wire and crimp thingy.

The mechanical termination is called a ferrule but I have never seen lockable devices like this one.

I've often seen them used in PC power supplies, for all of the power leads.

16c each et e14 seems to be taking the piss a bit though.
