Almost forgot - use #4 self-tapping screws, 3/4" long to screw them to wood or #4-40 machine screws to attach to a panel. SPecs state #3's but that is not a common screw size to find at your local h/w stores. If you need a lot of mounting screws, I get mine via Amazon. Usually arrive in less than a week (h/w rarely counts for Prime shipping).

We use these exclusively.
They are extremely reliable and the screws do not work loose with time.
Buy the 12 position 8 mm spacing (pitch) and you can cut them to shorter lengths as needed.
The distance between terminals is 8 mm. Wire gauge accommodated 12-20 (one twelve, two 16's possible - a bit tight, multiple 20's in one terminal).
If you want to work with larger ga wire, get the 10 mm pitch units.
i need to even out power distribution on my layout. Does anyone have a siggestion on what type of terminal strip I can use? I do not want to daisy chain terminal track sections. I would like to use a strip of some sprt just do not know what one to use.
thanks,
have a happy holidau.
