Where can I buy these?

[disney]

I hope everyone is doing OK, if not well. I am looking to find these in quantity (50+) for a reasonable price. I have a friend that showed me these crimp connections that are oem/approved for a sporty European car company. They come in several different sizes, and even when he buys them for me, (I assume the dealership sells them to him at cost) they are about 1$ each. That gets expensive fast, for something I would think they could be made for a few pennies or, whatever the German equivalent of a nickle is. So anyone have an idea of where else I can get these? (not looking for a bare/non-insulated barrel butt connector) Thank you to all who read, and an extra thanks to those who reply with an answer.

Those are the cheapest of "Crimp Butt Splices". Most offerings are "tubular" rather than open.

I bet you can find the type you show in the pictures in the automotive department at walmart or other "consumer oriented" outlet.

Pros would not use that style if they had the better type available. Your need may be specific.

We use to use those in some aircraft radio installations.
Cheap and quite reliable. They do call for a special style crimper tool for best results.

Never seen that type connector used as a butt splice.

Looks like the only place to get them bulk is to wait for the china express. 1Pcs/lot 453 U-Shaped Terminal Tab Cold Inserts Connectors .5-1.5mm2 NEW | eBay

The inner tabs look like they are to crimp the wire, the outboard tabs to crimp the insulation.
I have had good luck finding electrical terminals at Electronic Components Distributor - Mouser Electronics

thank you to all who have helped. I hope everyone is doing well.

I recall that they are MOLEX connectors and, yes, for best results they want the dedicated tool.
We used to use them in aviation on many non 'TSO'd' radio installations.
