Abstract
A socket contact terminal for electrical connection between a connection portion formed of a metal conductor on a printed circuit board and a connection terminal of an IC package. The contact terminal comprises a metal terminal composed of a main columnar portion and arm portions on both sides and having an angular U shape and an elastomeric member attached to the metal terminal. A metal surface is exposed from the outer surface of each arm portion. The elastomeric member is firmly held between the arm portions of the metal terminal and exhibits a repulsive force when the arm portions are pressed in the direction that the arm portions approach each other.
