ABSTRACT:
A two-position contact which can be used within a contact housing for making contact with single or double-faced printed circuit cards. The contact comprises an elongated shank having a flexible loop at one end for making contact with a printed circuit, and an opposite wiring end for joining the contact member to an electrical conductor. The flexible loop has a first contact portion on one side of the longitudinal axis of the contact member and a second contact portion on the other side of the longitudinal axis. The two contact portions are longitudinally spaced from each other. A pair of positioning tabs extend from the shank and a releasable spring catch secures the contact member longitudinally within the cavity. Two longitudinally different contact positions can be obtained by rotating the contact member 180.degree., without changing the longitudinal position of the wiring end of the contact member.
