capicorda are crimp terminals/connectors crimped onto the bare end of a cable with crimpers. I use to use them all the time wiring up terminal boards as an electrician. They’ll probably be the eyelet type if screwed down onto a terminal or junction block, maybe fork type but eyelet is better. You use the straight type for the ends of wires that go into automatic cutouts and things like that.
crimp connectors are used on most electronic equipment, in cars, and many other applications too.


Few examples here , also in Italian
