I need to replace a conductor in my son's toy bank. It is about
eight inches long, 3/8" wide, with two 1/8" conductors. It looks like,
and is as thin as, clear tape, but with two conductors buried in it.
One end simply pushes into a connector where friction provides the
electrical connection. The other end becomes a switch.
What is this product called, and where can I buy it? Hopefully with
a name, I can also find how to prep the ends to make the connection at
the sound effects box and turn the other end into a switch to be
operated by a person's finger.
Thank you for your time. Mike
Mike:
Check out the Digikey catalogue page link here:

You will find 8" and 10" long multi conductor ready-made flex cable
strips. If you picked out the 6 conductor version (about 3/8 " wide)
you could adapt it in as a replacement. (Use two or three of the
conductors to replace each of your existing conductors). It is
possible to solder to the ends of these cable cables if you use care
and as low of temp as possible. Digikey also sells small 1mm spacing
connectors by Hirose that accept the ends of these cables as an
alternative to soldering to the cable itself. You can use the Hirose
connectors and carefully solder to the connector leads and the glue
the connectors in place at the flex end points.
Good Luck
