The only through-hole USB type C connector I could find on LCSC.com: [https://lcsc\.com/product\-detail/USB\-Connectors\_Jing\-Extension\-of\-the\-Electronic\-Co\-Jing\-Extension\-of\-the\-Electronic\-Co\-TYPE\-CFemale\-14PIN\-DIP\_C168704\.html](https://lcsc.com/product-detail/USB-Connectors_Jing-Extension-of-the-Electronic-Co-Jing-Extension-of-the-Electronic-Co-TYPE-CFemale-14PIN-DIP_C168704.html) There are a couple of others that are combined USB A and USB C this is the only USB C only part.  You haven't said what signals or power are going through your connectors or your mechanical preferences for pitch and orientation (vertical or right angle). Here are a couple of male headers that are simple and polarised: [https://lcsc\.com/product\-detail/Wire\-To\-Board\-Wire\-To\-Wire\-Connector\_MOLEX\_22272021\_MOLEX\-22272021\_C293316\.html](https://lcsc.com/product-detail/Wire-To-Board-Wire-To-Wire-Connector_MOLEX_22272021_MOLEX-22272021_C293316.html) [https://lcsc\.com/product\-detail/Wire\-To\-Board\-Wire\-To\-Wire\-Connector\_MOLEX\-22\-23\-2031\_C234181\.html](https://lcsc.com/product-detail/Wire-To-Board-Wire-To-Wire-Connector_MOLEX-22-23-2031_C234181.html)   The problem I have with connectors on many sites is that I can find the part that goes on the PCB but not the part that then goes on the wires. The female parts are often sold as the connector receptacle body with the pins sold separately. The pins may be solder, crimp or IDC but I could not find where they are on LCSC.com or Farnell. For crimp or IDC you may need a tool which may be expensive unless you are doing lots of connectors. There are some nice IDC femal wire to receptacle connectors that mate with the PCB headers above and which you can manually insert the wires just using a small bench vice or even pliers with some care but I cannot find the parts on LCSC.com or Farnell.

Found roughly where the terminals for the female receptacles are: [https://lcsc.com/products/Terminals_11070.html](https://lcsc.com/products/Terminals_11070.html) but no idea which ones go with which receptacle (and I haven't found the receptacle yet...)

Hi! It is true that it is quite a detective work to find the matching connector with the terminal pins that are crimped to the wires. Also finding the tool that crimps the terminal pins to the wire can be quite a googling job. But I do like the moment that you have ordered the right parts and everything mates together perfectly :-D Aah the Heureka moment :-) I kinda like JST connectors, with 2.0mm and 2.54mm pitch, I have usually ordered them from banggood.com: [https://www\.banggood\.com/300pcs\-PH2\_0\-2p\-3p\-4\-pin\-2\_0mm\-Pitch\-Terminal\-Kit\-or\-Housing\-or\-Pin\-Header\-JST\-Connector\-Wire\-Connectors\-Adaptor\-PH\-Kits\-p\-1605099\.html?rmmds=search&cur\_warehouse=CN](https://www.banggood.com/300pcs-PH2_0-2p-3p-4-pin-2_0mm-Pitch-Terminal-Kit-or-Housing-or-Pin-Header-JST-Connector-Wire-Connectors-Adaptor-PH-Kits-p-1605099.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN) [https://www\.banggood\.com/230pcs\-XH2\_54\-2p\-3p\-4p\-5\-pin\-2\_54mm\-Pitch\-Terminal\-Kit\-or\-Housing\-or\-Pin\-Header\-JST\-Connector\-Wire\-Connectors\-Adaptor\-XH\-Kits\-p\-1605096\.html?rmmds=detail\-top\-buytogether\-auto&cur\_warehouse=CN](https://www.banggood.com/230pcs-XH2_54-2p-3p-4p-5-pin-2_54mm-Pitch-Terminal-Kit-or-Housing-or-Pin-Header-JST-Connector-Wire-Connectors-Adaptor-XH-Kits-p-1605096.html?rmmds=detail-top-buytogether-auto&cur_warehouse=CN) [https://www.banggood.com/Easyelec-IWISS-Mini-Microo-Open-Barrel-Crimping-Tools-Crimper-Plier-Terminal-For-28-20AWG-JAMM,Molex,Tyco,JST-Terminals-And-Connectors-p-1655175.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN](https://www.banggood.com/Easyelec-IWISS-Mini-Microo-Open-Barrel-Crimping-Tools-Crimper-Plier-Terminal-For-28-20AWG-JAMM,Molex,Tyco,JST-Terminals-And-Connectors-p-1655175.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN) Regards, Markus Virtanen HW / Electronics Designer

I'm quite sure that you find these connectors and terminal crimps from LSCS, you just need to spend some time for looking. However, you I'm quite sure that you need to get the manual crimping tool from elsewhere, like banggood, aliexpress, ebay, amazon and so on.... Regards, Markus Virtanen HW / Electronics Designer

For the manual crimping tool have a look at Andreas Spiess informative YouTube channel (episode #282): [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25qObkSUHng&ab_channel=AndreasSpiess](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25qObkSUHng&ab_channel=AndreasSpiess) I am long time user of the Japanese engineer crimping tool as I had no idea about the existence of the much cheaper IWISS tool. Crimping these connectors still are a challenge every time. My first tool was a one-step crimper - but most of the time it failed and I had a time consuming task to correct the imperfect crimping results. Then I watched video #39 of Andreas' channel and bought the expensive Japanese crimper - but, I must admit, although it takes two steps to crimp, it works (after some little training to get the right positions ...). Nowadays I would go for the IWISS. Hope, that helps. BTW: Andreas' channel is an eldorado for electronic enthusiasts - very informative with structured content. Regards Raimund
