WTB : HP67 card reader wire connector - Johnboy - 03-28-2019 12:31 AM
Hi All,
I'm not sure how to describe this part that I need, but on the later HP67 card readers, the motor and power wires are not soldered, but use a push-in connector.
I need one of those connectors, as I managed to break the power wire such that there's a small piece of wire stick in the connector, and now I can seem to push any more wire into it.
I'm happy to take a whole dead 67 card reader board if it has at least one of those connectors.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
John

I think these are used to provide strain relief for the wires at the termination point.
You could solder the wire directly to the pin.

I don't know if it really called by this name but is called Augat socket here:

Thanks Guys.
Googling fro "Augat Sockets" gives a while bunch of results for IC sockets, not like 67 card reader sockets. Maybe "Augat" is brand ??

If I'm picturing the connector correctly in my mind, perhaps a pin taken from a machined pin IC socket will do. Depends on how thick the wire is.
