Abstract
A pin/socket contact is made from two contact parts, namely, a pin/socket member and a tail/coupling member. The pin/socket member has a blind bore therein for receiving a stub portion on the tail/coupling member. Burrs on the stub portion hold the tail/coupling and pin/socket members together. The pin/socket member can be standardized and inventoried in large quantities to be assembled to a variety of tail/coupling members in which the tail portion is in the form of a PC tail, wire wrap adaptor or a compliant adapter.
