I am looking for a Core cable connector thart is described as a small piece of aluminium and seems to be called a RS Pro type terminal, but does NOT appear in the Core product search. This terminal is the male connector to Core PID 997. Can Anyone else help me with a cable connection from this to the Raspberry Pi breadboard, Please. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex028/uploads/core_electronics/original/2X/f/fed9b437a90ec5f322fa1474eec53914b1f9fdea.jpeg) ---

Hi Andre, Thanks for making a post 🙂 These are spade terminals. They come in a few different sizes (usually 1/4" / 6.3mm). They’re most commonly used in DIY automotive wiring, and are readily available from automotive and hardware stores. We do have these ones with alligator connectors though: > **[Alligator Clip with Spade Connector (10 Pack)](https://core-electronics.com.au/alligator-clip-with-spade-connector-10-pack.html)** > > This is a 10-pack of wires that are pre-terminated with an alligator clip on one end and a female spade connector on the other. Alligator clips are a staple item .. read more You’d need to check the size of the terminal on the product you’re looking at to see if they’ll suit your application. ---
