You did not specify the maximum current required. The PP30 is 30 Amps, the PP45 is for up to 45 Amps, and the SB50 good for 50Amps with a more robust connector and housing.

You can solder the connector pins to the wire if you are very good and do not get excessive solder on the connection, which hinders or prevents pushing the pins up into the plastic housing.
