ABSTRACT:
A strip of interconnected edge clips for attachment to contact pads on a circuit-bearing board, in which a plurality of edge clips each have a free end and a stem end with the stem ends of the clips connected with a carrier rail or strip. A pair of spaced-apart spring fingers are on the free ends of the clips for receiving an edge of a circuit-carrying board therebetween, and an elongate auxiliary support strand extends past the free ends of the plurality of clips and is mechanically connected with the free ends of the clips to provide support to the clips. According to another aspect of the invention, the clip has an angularly extending interconnecting portion between the stem end and free end, offsetting the free end in both a sideward and rearward direction relative to the stem end.
