Does anyone have a good source for the round terminals that slide onto the cartridge pins? I looked around and it looks like the going rate is about $5 for four! (plus shipping)
It used to be that new cartridges came with them but not anymore (for a lot of them anyway). I thought I'd find something like 100 for $10. Maybe the return of the vinyl drove prices crazy?

In a pinch the small Molex female round pins (not listed on Flippers - opps!) work just fine! Not the 0.093 size - whatever the smaller size is are the ones you want.
I carry the proper cartridge pins (not yet listed) as well and we include them with cartridges we sell...

Thanks John, I didn't think of them. I have some but if they work well I'll have to find a part number for them and order 100, then I should be set for life... or wait maybe if I order 200 I'll live longer!

Mole 0.063" female pins as I recall, after looking at the box yesterday...

The actual ones designed for cartridges are tough to find. The pins for crimp DB-9 connectors work well but are a bit long.

I'm going to order some Molex female crimp pins. Cut maybe half of the crimp end off then solder. I don't need a hole for the wire.
