Wire to Board connectors
« on: January 09, 2026, 10:29:49 pm »
Does anyone have a source and/or specs for the wire to board connectors typically used for pcb boards?  I'd prefer the red type shown but will use anything that I can crimp my wires to.

Thanks for the replies.  The specific failed connector shown below is from a Fortune 2 IGT and connects to the optical coin sensor.  The sensor with the same connector is used on future IGT machines as well.

The broken finger is not the issue.  It's the crimp/solder socket.  From the replies, I should get a 2.54mm (0.100-inch pitch) female 5-pin connector.  I assume solder crimp is the best choice and the actual metal socket is the correct fit for the pin.

They are not all the same , pins are different pitch and length and spacing can vary.
Digikey has most.

The red one is called a molex KK. Its been ripped off by hundreds of manufacturers. You should be able to find it on just about any electronic part supplier website.

The one you have circled in the photo looks like a 0.254mm pitch, or 0.1" in the banana scale
