I need a source for stainless steel crimp-on disconnect terminals. 0.25in, preferrably both straight and flag.

You might try Sta-Kon terminals. They are made by a company called Thomas&Betts. I know they make terminals plated with gold, silver, and nickel. They might make something that would suit your needs. The website is www.tnb.com . Hope this helps, Good Luck!

What's

What's your application? Corrosion problems? You might want to look for something other than stainless due to the fact it is not as conductive as typical connector materials. Something in silver or gold plate will be your best bet.

Yes, corrosion concern

Primary application is for A/C condensor connecting primary power to contactor. I seem to remember someone (not here) recommending stainless. Can't remember who it was :-( only that they ran about $3 each (ouch!) but saved him problems down the line.

T&B Sta-Kon is what my supplier handles, but they don't make stainless.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check into silver or gold plating.

Another trick is to

cover the connections with shrink tubing. Goes on easy with a heat gun and comes off with a knife.

i am suprised!

many of you live near the oceans ,the connectors used in boating and marine electrical would seem the best bang for the buck!
