Abstract:
An electrically conductive contact is disclosed and includes a fastening section integrally joined between a body and a tapered lead-in section. The fastening section is adapted for press-fitting into a hole of a substrate, such as a printed circuit board. The fastening section includes a pair of beams with a web joined in-between. The web has a center portion disposed between a pair of ramp portions. Each of the ramp portions has a sloping planar surface. The center portion has an opening extending therethrough and is offset in a normal direction. The fastening section is configured such that when the fastening section is press-fit into the hole of the substrate, the beams deflect both laterally and angularly.
