Abstract

An electrical contact having one or more spring-biased tabs for mounting to a circuit board precludes the need for additional mechanical fasteners and obviates any additional manufacturing steps, except for soldering. The tabs are formed and shaped to provide springs which, when inserted into holes in a circuit board, compress and grip the interior wall of the hole.
