Alternates to Zierick
(OP)
I'm looking for SMT connectors similar to what Zierick offers, but my Google Kung Fu seems to be lacking today. Any care to share a few leads?

The list includes Zierick, so that's a good sign.

So we don't have to guess which one of their hundreds of parts you are looking for.

Mcgyvr, the part is 1262 (or 1262T, loose or taped, doesn't matter). Basically we are looking to move away from Molex Flexi-Mate connectors to reduce cost. Looking to simply insert tinned 18-22awg wires and forget about it since there is no real need for disconnection.

There are thousands of different connector options for 18-22 AWG wire. We use AMP MTA-100 IDC connectors a lot. like http://www.mouser.com/catalog/637/1384.pdf
I personally wouldn't ever consider soldering 18-22 AWG wires to a PCB.. They are just about guaranteed to break (at least a few strands) during assembly handling. Sure its done.. I wouldn't though.
