Yes Frank,
I give up.  The original poster asked about terminals for 1/2" copper braid.
Talk about drifting into a mess..

This is the craziest thread I've ever experienced on the RFI reflector 


Brady Connectors... Brundy Connectors... Burndy Bugs Brady Markers Bug Nuts 


We need to Bugs Bunny as the Swami in "Bowery Bugs" to straighten 
out this mess before our heads are spinning even more.

Mac, I assume you are referring to the brass cable clamps? I use them for 
attaching my system ground wires to the 8 foot ground rods. (Well brass 
because they are used for wiring, but cast or stainless for wire cables.

Okay, guys. Here are what some folks refer to as "bug nuts." Wonderful 
devices for connecting two or more wires. I use them to connect feedlines 
to dipoles that use "cobra head" or balun center points. A dang sight 
stronger and more reliable than soldering! 

I sort of thought they might have been made by Burndy. 

You can also use them to extend shorter wires to lower the resonant 
frequency of a dipole that you have cut three times and it's still too 
short!
