    Help about finding crimp connector

    Hello friends,
    I was repairing a PSU that somebody was inside already and melted the AC input wires that connect to the board and they are crimped with the some terminals that I cannot find anywhere. Does anyone know where i can find such terminals?

      i think that's it, seems some psus crimp a metal piece that holds all the strands together so when it's put into its hole in the pcb, there are no strands that go sideways and all go through the hole to be soldered. IMHO it provides little strain relief...

        I have extracted another crimped wires from another PSU but they look different. They are used to hold the strands together on multiple wires so they don't move during soldering.I'm looking for such crimp terminals, but I can't find any. Please help me find some.

          bootlace crimps,
          but they have strain relief and retention barbs - which is unusual

          if you dont need the insulation gripping and just want to keep the strands together then use "bootlace ferrules".
          make sure the crimp tool is 6 sided and not 4 sided

          or just twist and tin the wires before inserting them
