Looking for .187 female disconnects in Ontario
oldskoolcade:
Just checking to see if anyone here knows where to get the .187 (or 3/16) female disconnects here in Ontario, specifically southern ontario. I went to HD and all they have are the .250 disconnects, and none of the two guys working in the electric aisle could point me in a direction to where I could find them. I know that I could always go the route of ordering them from the states, but I'd like to get started on the wiring early this week, and the disconnects are all that stands in the way of me and a kick-ass game of Exciting Hour...
Any suggestions or places that you know of that have them (other than radio shack) would be greatly appreciated!

Peale is really good at getting stuff here to Ontario, or you can just use the .250's and crimp them down. I've done about 15 panels with the .250's, so I know they work. True, it's nice to have the "real" ones, but the HD specials are pretty cheap and a good alternative.. Even the new minipac comes with .250's Just use one of those el cheapo yellow handle crimpers and just crimp down the middle fin so that it catches on the hole in the microswitch tab.
SirPeale:
Sure, I can get them to you. PM me, and we'll have a little talk.

Well if you go to the auctions at starburst. Across the street is the donut shop just a little north of it is a little strip plaza. There is a little hole in the wall electronics shop in the back is connectors I got 100 for eight dollars. And they are the right size. Also the shop deals in new and used electronic anything. They have tons of cool stuff in there.

Where abouts in Southern Ontario do you live? As there's a place in Hamilton called "Chadwicks Electrical". There a electrical supply shop for various industral companies. They're located on Nebo Rd between Stone Chruch and Rymal.
They have .187 connects as well as many other items.
Thanks
