ABSTRACT:
Process for assembly of a connector incorporating an insulator (1) comprising a front part (2) in which working portions (30) of a plurality of contact elements (30, 33, 34) are inserted, these contact elements comprising bent rear portions (32), and distal ends (33) fitted into slots (21) in a rear wing (20) of the insulator (1). The process comprises immobilizing the distal ends (33) by thermoforming in their respective slots (21) without addition of material. The connector thus produced incorporates folds of material (40) solidly attached to the edges (23) of the corresponding slots (21), thereby allowing immobilization and precise position-retention of the contacts (30).
