ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector (10) includes an insulative housing (12) and a plurality of contacts (14) accommodating in the housing. Each contact comprises a spring arm (143) defining a lower portion (144), a medial portion (145) and an upper portion (146). The upper portion includes an extending beam (147) connecting with the medial portion, a contacting portion (149) for connecting with a mating component (30), and a connecting beam (148) connecting the extending beam and the contacting portion. The extending beam has a first axis A, about which the extending beam is symmetrical, and the contacting portion has a second axis B, about which the contacting portion is symmetrical. The second axis is deflective from the first axis and an angle C is formed therebetween accordingly. Thus, the superposed area between the contacting portion and the mating component is increased, which enables more reliable electrical connection therebetween.
