ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector assembly (10) including a boardlock (14) for mounting in an aperture (70) in a printed circuit board (68). The boardlock (14) has mounting leg means (52) extending from body (44) to free ends(58) that are effective springs, extending to above the upper surface (72) of the printed circuit board (68) on which the boardlock (14) is mounted. The leg means (52) have a shoulder (56) and a tapered section (60, 84) intermediate body (44) and free ends (58). The shoulder (56, 82) cooperates with the tapered section (60, 84) to engage the upper and lower surfaces (72, 76) of the printed circuit board (68), thereby securing the boardlock (14) or connector assembly (10) to printed circuit board (68). Boardlock (14) may have tapered lead-in surfaces (64) adjacent free ends (58) to facilitate insertion of boardlock (14) into aperture (70).
