Connector stock for burnt-connector repairs

Most connectors here are Molex .156 inch. Buy 12-position housings (Molex 26-03-4121) and 12-pin locking male headers (26-48-1125) and cut them to length. Use Trifurcon crimp pins 08-52-0113 for 18-20 gauge wire or 08-52-0125 for 22-26 gauge; 08-50-0189 (tin-plated brass) is an acceptable substitute. Also keep 14, 28 and 40 pin IC sockets.
