Abstract
An electrical contact is provided for connecting together substrates. The electrical contact has a longitudinal axis and includes first and second structures that are connected together to prevent relative movement between each other. The first structure extends along the longitudinal axis and has a rigid construction. The second structure includes a spring portion and a mounting portion. The spring portion is resiliently deflectable in the direction of the longitudinal axis. The mounting portion is adapted for securement to one of the substrates. A press-fit portion is provided that extends along the longitudinal axis and is adapted for press-fit insertion into a hole of the other one of the substrates. The press-fit portion may be part of the first structure or the second structure. In addition, the first structure may be composed of metal or plastic.
