Abstract
An electrical contact of an electrical connector includes a mounting leg for being retained within a through hole of the printed circuit board wherein the mounting leg is tubular and is radially deformable to abut against an interior surface of the through hole. The mounting leg is radially thinned in thickness to confront the interior surface of the hole. The mounting leg is formed by rolling a metal plate with a C-shaped cross-section thereof. There are two thinned areas of the mounting leg, symmetrically located by two sides of the slit of the C-shaped cross-sectional configuration.
