A male DC barrel plug you solder onto your own cable, with a ribbed boot that takes the strain where the cable leaves the shell. The barrel is the common 5.5 mm outside diameter - the size that mates with the DC jacks on Arduino boards, routers and most 12V adaptors. Watch the inner pin, though: 5.5 mm plugs come with both 2.1 mm and 2.5 mm bores and they look identical from the outside, so check the socket you are matching before you solder.
Key features
- 5.5 mm outer barrel, straight in-line plug
- Solder tails - fit it to any cable you like
- Moulded plastic shell with cable strain relief
- Mates with standard 5.5 mm DC jacks
- Check the pin bore: 2.1 mm and 2.5 mm both exist
- For making up or repairing power leads
