ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to a latching arm for an electrical connector. The latching arm has a main body with a connection point to the housing of the electrical connector. The main body has a securing section for engaging a mating connector. The main body has a back-up member for engaging the housing. Whereby when the connection point weakens due to stresses on the connection point, the back-up member engages the housing thereby maintaining a good connection between the electrical connector and the mating connector.
