Finding board-to-wire connectors and leads on Farnell's site

I'm looking for either leads or 1-way pins/sockets which can be
soldered/crimped onto wires and will fit these:

http://uk.farnell.com/fischer-elekt...scher-elektronik/bl1-36z/header-socket-2-54mm...

Do Farnell actually sell them? What should I be searching for?

Here is a two-way housing which could be cut down to one-way. The
page also links to the crimp sockets (which can with care be crimped
using pliers for small quantities).

http://uk.farnell.com/harwin/m20-1060200/crimp-housing-2way/dp/865606?_requestid=1143523

If you can use a round pin, then look at:

http://uk.farnell.com/jst-japan-sol...mf/housing-1way/dp/7356480?_requestid=1144903

and the associated pins, contacts and crimped leads.

These will fit the pins....

In bulk, buy from digikey USA (not UK) for BIG savings- 50%+ e.g 6 way, 100+
Farnell 83p Digikey 100+ 20 cents ! BUT there is shipping/duty/vat etc on
top. I buy 500 at a time and save a fortune.

Why not just use one of each? Solder the one into the board, and solder
wires to the other, clip the pins short, and glurp it with RTV?

Good Luck!

Simple... buy the female opposite type connector.
http://uk.farnell.com/fischer-elektronik/bl1-36z/header-socket-2-54mm-36way/dp/9728856?in_merch=

Now break the strip into individual connectors (file rough edges if necessary).
Solder a conductor onto the solder end and insulate with heatshrink.

Sorry, I may have misunderstood. I assumed that you wanted an individual socket
which could have a wire (lead) attached such as for making a patch cord.

I'm currently using the above for leads, but I was hoping to find
something that was *meant* to be attached to a wire rather than a PCB.

Yep, that's exactly what I want, and what I'm doing. I just hoped that
there would be something a bit better suited to the task.

I know they exist as they are commonly used in any cheap PC case, so it
just needed a little googling followed by digging in the parametric search.

Is <http://uk.farnell.com/jsp/search/productdetail.jsp?SKU=1632344> what
you are looking for? (FCI 65039-036LF 1 way Mini-PV series crimp socket)

These are the terminals:

http://uk.farnell.com/jsp/search/browse.jsp?N=500006+1002287&Ntk=gensearch_001&Ntt=harwin+M20&Ntx=

and these are the housings:

http://uk.farnell.com/harwin/m20-1060200/crimp-housing-2way/dp/865606?in_merch=

I buy the longer housings and cut them down.

They probably are available somewhere because the last PC case I bought had some
of the front panel leads terminated on individually housed terminals exactly as
you would like to find. However, since these are crimp terminals they require
the right tooling - and this assumes you would be able to buy the housing and
pin as a pair. I would guess you would have to buy each part is bulk. I think
the soldered solution you have adopted is better - and cheaper...

There is. The Molex KK range. And doubtless others.

You can get go to the auto parts store and get a crimper that can be
pressed into service. Maybe even Radio Schlock. I've crimped terminals
with a needle-nosed pliers; but one day I got lucky - an AMP rep _gave_
me a crimper that would have cost a couple of hundred dollars retail.

Good Luck!

However, depending upon the number required there may be some difficulty in
actually obtaining them.

solder pcb header pins into in-line sockets?

someone makes IDC crimp pin that fit into 2.54mm pitch shells
like the common 2.54mm pitch crimp sockets, I see them shipped
with some PC mainboards
