I am looking for connectors for small gauge wire. Similar to servo
connectors but for single wires. Locking would be nice.

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction here.

Put an image of something similar (or a link to a manufacturer's site)
as at least I have no idea what you are looking for!

Take a look at the Molex connector pairs. They are keyed and you can get
them in any number of conductors.

A typical two-position plug is DigiKey P/N WM1220-ND with the receptacle as
DigiKey WM1230-ND. These take male contacts DigiKey WM1002-ND and female
contacts DigiKey WM1003-ND. There is a whole family. Check the DigiKey
site for the number of conductors you need.

I've been pulling the pins out of old DIP sockets (the machined-pin
type) for this purpose for many years. Hole-side for the socket; pin
side for the plug...or use tinned/stranded wire or solid conductor for
the plug. Solder to the conductors; slip small shrink-fit over top.
Don't lock, but on small (24-30) wires, this usually isn't a problem.
