Not sure where I should post this but.....well it's here.
Below is a picture of a printed circuit board terminal strip we are having difficulty in sourcing.

Terminal pitch is 3/8 of an inch. I'm pretty sure that, in the past, we used a US sourced part and the Imperial measurement for the pitch also suggests that.
Any suggestions welcomed - apart from redesigning the PCB layout of course....:grin:

still looking for that style, but would this work? http://www.jameco.com/Jameco/Products/ProdDS/797881.pdf
Its PCB and has the .375 spacing, I just dont know if since the pins are in the center of the block it would push it up so much that it coveres the legend -you will have to check the dimensions. The one I posted is $4.75ea in single qty from Jameco.
Wireguru
That is greatly appreciated.
Thank you. We'll get on the case tomorrow - it's after 7.00 pm here.

These Magnum blocks by Cooper are similar and may produce less stress on the solder joint. The solder tab may be smaller than your current block uses. The Cinch type tab modification of a dual row barrier block is fairly large.

Cinch has a very poor web page

Augat RDI made a similar block to the Magnum. Augat apparently is part of Tyco. Maybe you can figure out their web page. Cooper-Magnum has the best web page of the three.

Thank you all for your input.
Appreciated.
We have gone the Farnell route - we already have an account with them.
