Fastons
Jeez, I feel like a newb asking this, but does anyone have a link to a specific part on the te connectivity site for fastons?
https://www.te.com/usa-en/home.html
Looking for uninsulated, brass or nickel plate with the additional crimp that goes on the insulation. You know, like the ones which come on every damn speaker made!
Several times I've been rehabbing a pair of speakers and end up rigging the wore out fastons. Yes, I searched here, which is how I got to the TE site. But then I get stuck in analysis paralysis because there are a billion choices, but largely no actual pics. Looking to stock up on all the common sizes.
Help me please!

Dorman makes some nice ones. Here's one example.

I've also used those as well Dave. I keep a stash on hand. They can be found at Advanced auto, AutoZone and O'Reilly's in my area.

Thanks for posting. Yes, I've seen those, but it's not what I want. Here's a pic:
Seems like these should be available everywhere, but nobody has them. So simple, but unattainable. -

Do you think those are unattainable due to the way they are crimped?Political Correctness'.........defined

Crimpers are available. After the tedious finger torture and delicate mini needle nose plier work during my crossover pins. I bought crimpers to do the molex pins. They will work for those as well.

Wanted to follow up on this. Ended up ordering these:
Swpeet 720Pcs Gold 2.8/4.8/6.3mm Male and Female Spade Quick Connectors Wire Crimp Terminal Block with Insulating Sleeve Assortment Kit Perfect for Electrical Wiring Car Audio Speaker
Tried to crimp a few with the various crimpers I have and wasn't satisfied with the results, so I just ordered this kit which comes with a crimper with the correct dies.
haisstronica Crimping Tool Set AWG 22-16 With 600PCS Female Male Spade Connectors and Insulated Sleeves
Seems my Google foo was lacking when initially searching.
Edit:
Why does the Amazon app make it so difficult to post links to a product. Hold on....
