ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector is adapted for surface mounting on a substrate such as a printed circuit board having a mounting hole of a given diameter. The connector includes a dielectric housing having a board-mounting face. An elongated mounting post projects from the board-mounting face for insertion into the mounting hole in the substrate. The elongated mounting post includes a plurality of longitudinally extending, circumferentially spaced, generally rigid ribs defining a circle having a diameter approximately equal to or less than the given diameter of the mounting hole. A plurality of flexible, longitudinally extending ribs are located alternatingly between the generally rigid ribs and define a circle having a diameter at least slightly greater than the given diameter of the mounting hole.
