Who has greater knowledge than me?

I've asked numerous people, emailed many, but no joy. I need some of the terminal ends to crimp onto a new loom, but no-one seems to understand (even with pictures) what I am looking for.

This will be my first attempt at adding pictures, so hopefully they will be ok. I need the ends you commonly find in glass fuse holders, bulb holders etc.

Thanks, Daz

I always just made my own by spiralling the end of the wire and burying it in solder.
I've never managed to find any for sale and I worked in Electronics for 10 years.
You could buy a fuse holder and scavenge the connectors from that.

Only place I can think of is RS Components in Corby

but not sure if they have what you're after

I've checked RS and Farnell and a few others and can't find them.
I'm not even sure what they are called.

Hi Stig, are they just brass ends or are they spring loaded? I think the spring loaded ones are called pogo pins, but not a clue what the others are called.

Google either Brass "End Caps" or brass electrical ferrules, there's millions of them.

Thanks for the help, I have Googled brass end caps etc but to no avail. They are spring loaded but only by adding a plain spring, nothing serious, or part of the actual crimp fitting. This is so frustrating, they are everywhere but can I find them to buy them, can I chuff?
