Abstract

An electrical connector with a housing and a plurality of contact assemblies. Each contact assembly has a contact and a contact mount. Both the contact and the contact mount are generally tubular shaped. The contact mount surrounds a substantial portion of the contact and has tabs that are bent into a slot in the contact to fixedly and stationarily attach the contact mount to the contact. A front end of the contact mount has a latch that latches behind a portion of the housing. A rear end of the contact mount has a stabilizer cone that circumferentially contacts the housing to stabilize the assembly inside the housing.
