ABSTRACT:
The contacts (4) have a body (4a) intended to pass through an opening in a card (5) and to be brazed on one side (5a) thereof, and a head (4b) of larger width than the body (4a), intended to be positioned on the other side (5b) of the card, this head (4b) being intended to receive a complementary contact.
The strip is formed of a band (1) of plastic material resisting the heat released during brazing and having cells (2) opening on one side, these cells being adapted to receive sealingly, by elastic deformation, the heads (4b) of the contacts (4) and being spaced apart according to a given pitch.
With this type of strip, a large number of contacts (4) can be positioned in a single operation on a printed circuit card (5), the heads (4b) of the contacts being protected during the brazing and washing operations from contaminants.
