Soldering wires to PCBs with strain relief

Hello

Please help us to find a way of soldering 7/0.2mm wire to PCB copper with strain relief?

We need to put some PCBs and wire strip boards in a box and put wires between them. (7/0.2mm wire).

When the wire end is stripped, we are tinning it and then soldering it to a bit of copper on the PCB, but there is no strain relief. (ie we scrape away the solder resist to reveal the bare copper and solder the wire end to that).

We have been putting these (below) molex crimp terminals onto the end of the wires, in order to give strain relief, since the 'collar' grips into the plastic sleeving round the wire…(we squeeze the 'collar' into the wire insulation with pliers)

however, the boss says it looks messy, so we are wondering if there is anything similar, with the “collar” which grips into the wire insulation, and makes it easy to solder the wire to the pcb?

Bootlace ferrule?

Thanks, as below, these have a big plastic collar which we cannot "crush" into the wires insulation to give strain relief.....I suppose a bootlace ferrule without that big clumpy plastic bit might be good though...because then we could solder the wire end into it, and then use heatshrink over the wire and the ferrule to give a solid connection with strain relief.?..

The typical way a commercial way to do it would be to have a hole near one corner of the PCB, the wires are just soldered on then formed into a "loom" and tyraped looping the tie through the hole the hole. Often done on the CRT PCB on the neck of the tube. Thinking back to my youth, military kit would be done like this but the wires would have been been loomed up properly with lacing twine, not just tyraps. Of course you could use a P clip.

You could twist the strands, , only partially strip or expose a bit to solder wet the wire ends. Solder will burn off the insulation on most magnet wire. Then solder tin the board, contact area. then solder together goes easy.
Bond wire to board with adhesive such as PU fast adhesive and external where needed with snap around.
