Amart88 Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 I am looking to get a 25 pack of 0 gauge ring terminals off of Darvex.com and I see that they have both "chrome" plated and "gold" plated ones. They are both the same price, which one would be best? Thanks Quote My 2005 s10 blazer build. 4 zcon 18's walled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amart88 Posted March 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 try to find copper with gold plate Yeah, they don't have any on the whole site that are copper that i noticed. I need at least 20 and the local shop 1 hour away sells them for like 15 dollars each! so I really am stuck. The ones on Darvex are stinger. They have "Bulk" and "crimp" ones, whatever the difference may be they are all brass Quote My 2005 s10 blazer build. 4 zcon 18's walled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastern canada.. yeah I have seen those copper ones before, actually used them with 4 ga on an old install but I never seen any 0 gauge ones. I would think the 0 ga plod would be tricky to solder. Also, ever hear of any of them corroding? one of the 4 ga i used started to turn green after a few months in the trunk. Quote My 2005 s10 blazer build. 4 zcon 18's walled.

AA98hoe Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 I get mine at a local battery wholesale house they're copper with anodized finish 80 cents each..look at a welding wholesale place also..copper is a way better conductor than brass an a lot softer to crimp an easier to solder Quote TEAM DC AUDIO VEHICLE:98 chevy tahoe 2wd 3-4 drop HEADUNIT:alpine 9886 PREAMP:arcaudio FRONT STAGE:4-6 1/2s selinium,DD component set and 4-selinium tweeters in each door KICKPANELS:jl audio 5 1/4 REAR DOORS: dd components 6 1/2s HIGHS AMPS:zapco 750.2 on front doors,zapco an another 750.2 on kicks and rear doors SUBS:4-ascendant audio 18s with 5 spiders in a custom box built by KINGSUV SUB AMP: 2-dc7.5s ALTERNATORS: 3-mechmans 1- 425comp, 1-smd spec350, 1-270 with adj voltage harness on custom dc bracket WIRE:10-runs 0g front to back BATTERIES:6-d1400s TL results:157.1 at 38hz and 156.8 at headrest score @37hz.
