ABSTRACT:
Improved pin and socket type electrical terminals are disclosed. Each terminal includes a terminal body received in a tubular sleeve of metal having low corrosion characteristics, such as stainless steel. The tubular sleeves are secured to the respective terminal bodies by a first annular crimp intermediate the ends of the sleeves and engaging in an annular recess in the respective bodies. The socket terminal body includes a plurality of cantilevered arms which are protected against damage from overstressing by the sleeve. A second annular crimp in the socket terminal sleeve is used to set the contact arms to control the normal force applied to a mating pin terminal. An annular pad of lubricant can be positioned within the end of the socket terminal sleeve and held in position by the ends of the arms.
