ABSTRACT:
A multi-sided contact is provided for use in electrical connectors. The contact sides define an open-ended enclosure for receiving a plug pin. Each side has a reverse bend substantially uniformly formed therein whereby the bend portions of the sides define a reduced throat section for effecting desired gripping engagement with the pin periphery received therein. The terminal end of each contact side defines in part a contact flared entrance-end which when inserted in a connector insulator opening effects a desired preload on the throat section as will hereinafter be explained in greater detail.
