Review on Complete Set Of 100 Nylon Spade Connectors Kit For 22-10 Gauge Wiring | Quick Disconnect Insulated Male And Female Wire Spade Terminal | Assortment Kit N-004 By Twidec by Shane Wallace

Revainrating 3 out of 5

On the low quality side, but cheap

These connectors were expected to be on the lower quality side and they were. Cheap but worked ok. Often the process of crimping with my professional grade crimping tool made the male spade move to the sidewall of the plastic, and often the whole metal part inside the plastic "cowl" ended up loosely bouncing around inside that cowl. Beware some -- perhaps 10% -- of the female connectors are too loose, meaning you must give them a slight pliers pinch to get a good electrical connection when you slide the male connector in. The "industry standard" high quality version is made by Thomas & Betts but I went for cheap this time. Bottom line: these connectors are adequate and more tedious to use but cheaper than the state-of-the-art Thomas & Betts connectors.

Pros
  • Easy to use and crimp nicely, the added plastic shield are a great bonus.
Cons
  • Not the best I am seen but did the trick.
