Hi

I've run out of 9.5 (3/8) male spade terminals. I've searched the Utilux and Narva site, they don't seem to exist.

Does anybody know where I can buy some? I even searched eBay.

Steve

PS this is the female one.

Hi Barls

The 9.5mm is the actual spade size. Its the same connection on VW Voltage regulators where the battery cable goes on.

Hi

Handful would be great.

Repco would sell either Narva or Utilux brands I guess, those companies don't have them listed.

I went to two good local parts stores today, neither place had them.

Hi Steve
Narva part number 56040BL ,but if you are going to use them for the regulator take yellow insulator off then crimp & solder.

Steve,

I have the females here at home, but not the males sorry.

But I bought them from Bursons if that helps.

I don't think I've ever seen a male 9.5 spade terminal Steve..

I have used some female ones over the years...
used to get them from work... they came from the UK...
I don't think Narva etc have them???

Narva used to be an East German company ... the Quality went Up when the Berlin wall came down... lol

Got mine for a Mexican regulator from Motormate if you have that in your state $5 for 20 females.

Shame most females cost a shitload more than that!!
