You will find larger terminals at almost all auto parts stores.

Subject: [RFI] Connectors for 1/2" tinned copper braid strap?

I've got some 1/2" tinned copper braid strap on hand that I'd like to use for bonding between my station equipment.

I'm wondering about how to best connect it to my equipment.  I'd prefer some sort of connection like a ring terminal or grommet to keep things neat, and to keep the sharp frayed ends of the strap under control.

The standard big-box store electrical aisle ring terminals seem too small to accept the strap, even when tightly rolled.

I'm open to suggestions for how to prepare the strap for connection to the various ground posts on my equipment and to the chassis of my shack PC.

Thanks,
