Abstract
A continuous strip of terminal posts comprises a plastic carrier strip through which the posts are inserted at regular spaced apart intervals. The carrier strip is of a thermoplastic material and has a generally H-shaped cross-section. The posts extend between the sidewalls of the carrier strip and through the web portion thereof. The individual posts are removed from the carrier strip at the time of insertion into a printed circuit board by an insertion punch which has a chisel-like end such that it splits the carrier strip during insertion.
