Looking for a source for 10-12 and 14-16 .250 AWG female flag (90 degree) crimp-on insulated connectors.

I've done a lot of searching (digikey, amazon, waytek, etc...) and I keep coming up with connectors that appear to have little-to-no crimping "meat" on the leg where the wire inserts. It looks like it's all insulation and the they get crimped in-line with the female connector instead of "around the corner" on the 90. How do I crimp these - I have a Klein 3005CR crimper...do they fit?

Thank you!

I'm with Jeff on this. I never use insulated terminals, nor did the factory. If insulation is required, I use heavy duty dual wall heat shrink tubing. I have a variety of crimpers, but I use my Sta-Kon most. Flag terminals do require a special crimper. Some terminations I solder as well.
