I can't see any difference between ones bought from Halfords or
from TLC. Neither does RS etc list ones for low voltage stranded
and mains solid core - and they of course would cover both events
with their products.

I would be cautious about crimps, unless the blurb
actually said the word 'solid'.

The 'standard' red blue and yellow pre-insulated types make no mention of
this anywhere I've seen them on sale.

And I'd expect Halfords to sell them for car use - ie flex, and TLC for
mains cable - ie solid in the smaller sizes. Or at least to state if they
were only for use with flex.
