ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector (10) having a housing (12) of resilient plastic material of a type molded in a closed mold with bores defined by core pins; the housing including at least a bore (22) extending therealong leading from an insertion segment (36) of a given diameter to receive a contact (12) to a reduced diameter defining a support segment (28) supporting the contact in the housing, and a forward segment (25), with the various segments extending along a common axis (A) and with a beveled transition defined by surfaces (34) extending between the bore of the insertion segment and the bore of the support segment as defined by a series of recesses (30) and segments (32) arranged around the support segment periphery to define a lead-in for the said contact and maintain an approximate constant thickness of material to minimize plastic sinking and distortion.
