ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a means for aligning contact leads in electrical connectors. An alignment strip includes a pair of slidably mounted sheets, each defining an array of openings having wide and narrow portions. The sheets are initially positioned so that the wide portions of corresponding openings in the two arrays overlap to permit easy insertion of the leads. The sheets are then shifted to align the narrower portions of the corresponding openings so that the leads are held in place in their proper location.
