ABSTRACT:
A pin and socket connector is disclosed wherein the electrically mating surfaces of the terminals are provided with a clad material having superior conductivity characteristics relative to the base material of the terminals. The clad material of the socket is provided in the form of a band along an inner circumference thereof, and the clad material of the pin is also provided as a band along an outer circumference thereof, thereby to provide a complementary coinciding surface thereof. The inside diameter of the socket band is slightly less than the outside diameter of the pin band but the inside diameter of the remainder of the socket is slightly greater than the outside diameter of the pin band. Accordingly, friction between the clad material band of the pin terminal and the socket terminal body during engagement is substantially minimized until the pin band slidably engages the socket band whereupon the respective inside and outside diameters are substantially equal and maximum electrical connection between the respective terminals is provided.
