ABSTRACT:
An electrical contact facilitates making a soldered connection between an insulated wire conductor and a circuit board. The contact includes a tubular contact body having a hollow interior. One end of the contact body has an insulation piercing edge which promotes penetration of the contact body through the insulation of the wire conductor and into the conductive core when the wire conductor is pressed against the edge of the contact body. The other end of the contact body is solderable to a circuit board. The hollow interior permits solder to be drawn by capillary action through the contact body and into the wire conductive core.
