ABSTRACT:
An electrical terminal having a portion of a contact section overhanging the plane of the stock is made by a method that does not weaken the terminal by the use of a slot or similar structure. A blank is stamped from sheet metal stock. Portions of the blank including the portion to overhang are formed up from the plane of the stock. At least part of the terminal base is formed up from the plane of the stock. The formed base portion is returned to the plane of the stock to rotate the contact section and move the overhanging portion to its final position.
