Heavy duty PLUGGABLE speaker binding post's!

[Zero Cool]

I scored a large lot of these bizarre but ultra heavy duty speaker binding post's.

These were custom made but never put into production is my understanding. I believe these were made by ODU as they match this page pretty closely.

ODU Single Contacts - Connectors for High-Current Applications - ODU USA

These appear to be Gold Plated and have a removable plug end that is the typical binding post. I have NO idea what these would have been used for or WHY they were built this way. But I have about 1000 of them!

I will be looking for a vendor to buy the lot of them but in the meantime I thought I would see i could share some with YOU! Hurry Hurry!

$10 per set - A set will include 2x nuts, 2x sockets, 2x plugs and 2x binding post type nut.

Discounts for 10 or more sets. contact me for details.

Plus shipping of course and i guess i must say it...Battery not included!

Hi I would like to try 2 pairs. Will send a PM.

Some questions:

- won't one need 2 x nuts on the jack ? One for securing the jack and one for securing spade connectors.

- will 4 mm2 wire fit in the plugs wire hole ?

- or are they meant for soldering the cable (does not seem logical) ?

Good point! I can supply each post with 2 internal nuts. one to secure the jack and one to attach the wire internally.

- will 4 mm2 wire fit in the plugs wire hole ?

I'm not sure what that translates into American wire gauge. Sorry, the hole on the inside of the binding post end is rather small. standard sized spade lugs crimped onto a wire will fit the binding post. the end has a banana plug hole.

- or are they meant for soldering the cable (does not seem logical) ?

I am guessing that these were designed to mount to a PCB internally There is no provisions for soldering on either end.

I think these were designed to bolt to a PCB and then extend through an insulating grommet in a chassis is about the only logical way I could see these working.

Very interesting... how much do you figure it would cost to get four sets up to Canada?

 

[Zero Cool]

well the cheapest option is about $18, but the flat rate priority mail box is $20. and for the extra $2 is worth the faster shipping time!
