ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for use in forming a wire-wrapped welded terminal connection. The connector is formed by stamping and folding from a sheet of metal stock to include an integral sleeve element attached by a strap. During assembly of the connection prior to welding, the terminal is wrapped with wire as in the prior art and then the strap is folded to position the integral sleeve element correctly about the wrappings to form a weldable assembly functionally identical with the prior art sleeved assembly. Because the sleeve element is formed integrally with the connector and attached by a foldable strap, the element is automatically positioned correctly and is held in place by the strap during welding.
