ABSTRACT:
A contact 10, which can be easily made in small sizes, has a contacting section 12 with a double curvature bend 18,20 at one end, and a termination section 16 at the other end. A main body section 14 is between the contacting section 12 and the termination section 16 which has protrusions 28a and 28b located near the contacting section 12 and on the opposite side of it. These protrusions 28a and 28b form a gap between the main body section 14 and the housing wall of a connector housing, thus increasing the springiness of the contacting section 12 as compared to other contacts of the same size.
