ABSTRACT:
An electronic socket carrier system in which a plurality of lead sockets are mounted on a thin flexible carrier strip which can be removed from the sockets after mounting on a circuit board. The lead sockets each include retention elements on the socket body to retain the socket on the carrier strip and which can also be employed for locking the socket into a mounting hole of a circuit board. The sockets are cold formed or machined to have a plurality of barbs each with a ramp surface to facilitate installation of the sockets into cooperative holes in the carrier strip, and an edge portion for retaining the socket once installed on the carrier strip.
