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?

RE: Alternates to Zierick

Please post the Zierick part number...
So we don't have to guess which one of their hundreds of parts you are looking for.

VE1BLL, thanks.  I hate ThomasNet's layout so much, I didn't even consider it.

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.

PN = Solder

1262?? How is that for 18-22AWG wire?
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.
