Default Ashlok connectors

Does anyone know where I can get them from in the UK, also is the crimping tool the same as a standard servo pin crimper

Cheers

Carl

Hi Carl

I'm not sure if Ash is selling them anymore, but yes the standard servo crimped works on them.

This is where I get mine. Just ordered a whole bunch of stuff about a month ago and he had it all in stock and shipped within a couple of days.

I use the racheting style crimper (bought from T-bolt as well) but be sure to use the Ashlok pins only. The servo pins look similar but do not use the same locking tab.

I was looking for something else (TP balance connectors) and come across this on the Molex website.

It looks very much like the Ashlok connector to me.

These plugs are very similar/same as the audio plugs you use when connecting audio up between sound cards and cd/dvd players in PC's but have faded out now due to sound going full digital

I have seen these plugs on the RS or Farnell sites cannot remember which site i'll try and find them again, sorta found them whilst on site looking for some PLC parts for a customer but got bored when they could not make their mind up ....

Have used for over 5 years never had a failure, I use these in all my aircraft I like to know that every crimp is 100% plus you make the installation neater as you can make them to the correct length etc..
