ABSTRACT:
A carrier strip having a plurality of electrical terminals thereon is stamped and formed with alternating tab and recess portions. The carrier strip is adapted to be conveyed through an insertion machine which severs the terminals from the strip and inserts the terminals into a workpiece. To achieve closer spacing of the terminals and consequent increase in speed of terminal insertion within a workpiece, the carrier strip is adapted for stacking upon itself to provide multiple layers of carrier strips which are conveyed simultaneously to the insertion machine. For effective registration and interlocking of the stacked layers the carrier strip is purposely provided with a stamped and formed interlocking geometry. Multiple lengths of carrier strips according to the present invention may be conveyed simultaneously to an insertion machine where stacked registration is accomplished immediately prior to the insertion station of the machine.
