Default Need correct name of connector

I'm trying to replace the defrost heater in a Whirlpool fridge/freezer.
The calrod heater delivered yesterday has no connectors on the wire
leads, and I don't know where to get them or what to call them.

Description -- These crimp-on connectors are similar to the familiar
spade connectors, but the ends are rounded, bullet-like, to the same
diameter as the wire. They plug into the rear wall of the freezer above
the freezer coils. Couldn't be simpler, but I never saw them before.

It always helps to know the exact name of what you're looking for,
either on the phone or on Google, so would someone tell me what they're
called?

Thanks,
JPM

Both Lowes and Home Depot carry those connectors. Just saw them yesterday,
but they didn't have what I wanted, a 90* spade lug.
