Douglas wiring

Post by Dutch »

Does anyone know where you can order the barrel terminals and other parts from?Or what their correct name is i say barrel terminal but I don't know if that correct. If you go to a company like Mouser Electronics they have terminal but there are like 22,000 different types and I don't know where to start. I am talking like a box of the terminals. I know there are military parts suppliers that will sell you 1 connection kit with the shells and terminals and everything for like 5$ but I feel like there has to be a supplier somewhere where I can go and get a box of 100 terminal if I want them or a box of 50 of the bushings or grommets and not have to buy everything. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

Ebay "vintage Douglas connector" and scroll till you find what you want. I've seen them for 14 and 16awg, male or female, packs of 1 or 10, or a full set of 1 each to do a single connection male and female. I just ordered a female connector to tie into an old electric fuel pump I discovrred bolted into my truck but never hooked up.

Hi Dutch,

Isaac is right, they're called Douglas Connectors..........male and female. Cheapest I've found them is from Erik's if you need 10 or more;

or if you only need a couple then check Saturn Supply.
