What are the JST pin only sizes & associated crimping tools

[JimmyB]

I think the UK equivalents would be RS Components or Maplins on-line offerings. Then again Ebay has some handy uk based sellers. Looks like we have a fix on the Shay's problematic 8 pin connector, thanks Phil. And by chance also the K-27's, and possibly C-19's tender to loco connector, quite possibly an SM, thanks to The Shed for the link that contained that one.

Looked at RS Components and Farnell, their crimps were around £300.00, which is why I went to evil bay.

you do not need any UK equivalents, I picked International companies that are much larger and have more stock.... these companies do sell in small quantities also...

Mouser is very good.. - Especially for those Friday evening panics!

As they are based in the US.. We here in the UK, can place an order 'Friday evening', have it accepted, and then track it across the US, over to France, and into the UK.. .. .. - It will be delivered Monday / Tuesday morning! Which is faster then from most UK-based suppliers.

Orders above around £34.00 are 'post-free', and they deal with all the taxes from their end. - No delays in Coventry!

A very satisfied customer.
