- SON Spade Connector or Cable Lug
The SON spade connector, also known as a cable lug, is a small but highly functional component that plays an important role in bicycle lighting, especially in conjunction with hub dynamos. Made from brass, tinned and uninsulated, this cable lug ensures excellent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. The tin provides additional protection against oxidation and ensures a permanently stable connection, even under the fluctuating conditions that bicycles are exposed to.
Each spade connector is supplied individually as 1 piece, allowing flexible ordering according to individual needs. It is used to connect cable ends cleanly and securely to electrical components, such as the SON hub dynamo or suitable lighting systems. Although the uninsulated version requires subsequent insulation (e.g., with heat shrink tubing), it offers the advantage of a very compact design and a reliable mechanical connection. Thus, these cable lugs significantly contribute to your lighting always functioning reliably and keeping you safe on the road.

1 reviews for SON uninsulated spade connectors female with an average rating of 5/5 points.- 4.8mm for Dynamo side, 2.8mm for light side.
These work great. If you have a SON Dynamo you need the 4.8mm connectors for the Dynamo connection. 2.8mm fits most front lights connectors for the rear dynamo. I have both the SON style dynamo connectors and the Shimano/SP style dynamo on various bikes. The SON is more robust, less likely to corrode out. The Shimano style seems more failure prone, but is easily repaired in the field as long as you have a spare connector and a knife or something to cut the wire and strip new leads.
