Abstract PRESS-FIT ELECTRICAL, TERMINAL An electrical contact terminal having a mounting section designed for press-fit insertion into a hole of a substrate such as a circuit board. The mounting section comprises an oblong base portion to which is secured at least one separately formed flexible fin. While the base portion and fin are both electrically conductive, they are not formed integrally from the same material and may be formed of two different materials. The fin or fins are secured to opposite sides of said base portion and are secured to said base portion at one or both ends. At one end, the fins are narrowed in width and thickness and secured to the base portion by means of electrical or laser welding. The fins may be mechanically clamped to the base portion at the other end. The terminals may be carried by a carrier strip and the fins may be preferably formed by punching a portion of said carrrier strip and bending it around said base portion of the terminal to form parallel fins extending on opposite lateral sides of the base portion. A process for manufacturing the electrical terminal is also disclosed. EL-6084
