An electrical connector includes an insulative housing and a plurality of contacts retained thereto. Each contact includes a retaining section, a contacting section in front of the retaining section, and a mounting section behind the retaining section. A plurality of independent glue reservoirs are formed on a rear side of the housing via crossing partitions. A tiny passage is formed in an exterior face of the partition to communicate the neighboring glue reservoirs so as to assure the even/same height of the hardened glue blocks in respective glue reservoirs.

Electrical connector

An electrical contact for extending through a hole in the printed circuit board in an insertion direction, includes a retention plate and a leg extending therefrom. The leg includes an insertion section and a deformation section. The deformation section includes a pair of opposite wide side faces in a first direction perpendicular to the insertion direction, and a pair of opposite narrow side faces in a second direction perpendicular to both the insertion direction and the first direction, and a cavity recessed from one wide side face in the first direction. The cavity forms a first end located closer to the insertion end of the leg in the insertion direction and equipped with a cone shape thereof, and a second end located opposite to the first end and closer to a rectangular retention section and equipped with an arc shape thereof. The cavity forms a trapezoidal cross-section.
