Wire Connector's name
I am rewiring my STAR M4A1 RIS, but to take off the upper receiver I have to cut the wires in the fore grip, when it's done I want to use the type of connector that slides into each other (on most guns) the connectors look like this http://www.airsoftgi.com/images/echo1lrm4wire.jpg but i do not know the name of them.
|
EDIT: Tamiya Connectors...I thought you wanted to change them at first to deans.
|
You linked Tamayia (sp?) connectors, but ex-royal is right, if your re-wiring, just use deans, wayyy better
|
yes I will use Deans, but I need the connectors so I will not have to clip the wires every time I take the upper receiver off.
|
Halo isn't referring to the tamiya connector, he's referring to the connectors on the other side of the tamiya connector. those two that you can slide together when you have a front wired m4.
Sorry, I don't know their name, but I do know what you're referring to. |
Okay, well I'll figure it out
|
They have a couple names. Generally called spade connectors, or spade disconnects. They're available from the automotive sections of Canadian Tire.
|
Ok great, I'll take a look tomorrow morning.
|
If you patient you can get some of the do-it your self plugs and make your own. Cut at a bias and cover with heat shrink so the don't short instead of using the plastic shells.

Well CT is like 5 mins away from me, but if I can not find them, I may do it my self.
|
Well after looking around, I found these

Measure the connector itself. They are sized according to Imperial measurements for width. The most common is 1/4", this is the size you will find everywhere. The next size smaller is 1/8", Canadian Tire will have those as well, but as big of a selection.
I have some gold-plated ones that used to come with automotive speakers from many years past, and they come with the rubber-type sleeve on them (clear though). They are the elongated 1/8", and you can have a couple if you cover my shipping costs. *EDIT* I just checked, and I have 1 left. Doesn't help much. But I do have lots of the 1/4", about 4 of the 1/8" and a few of the more rare 3/16" in female, lots of 1/4" in male and none of th eother sizes in males. All are T&B StaKon, Panduit or no-name automotive grade. |
Alright can you get me a pic of them, I'll pay the shipping
|
My camera is "unavailable" at the moment. If you let me know the size you need and what gender, I'll see what I have precisely.
But check your local CT as well. |
I don't have one of them to Measure, but I can measure the wire, or slot the connector has to fit though.
