ABSTRACT:
A surface mount connector in which contacts mounted in two or more rows of contact passages have tails bent so that their end portions lie in a common plane for engaging traces on a printed circuit board. Each contact is a two piece part. The two parts are mounted in the corresponding contact passage from the opposite end faces of the insulator, so that the tails may be bent during the forming of the rear parts of the contacts rather than after mounting of the contacts in the passages. A retention arrangement is provided between the front and rear parts of the contacts which allows either a permanent connection between the parts, or a releasable connection so that the front and rear parts of the contacts may be removed from the passages and replaced if necessary.
