ABSTRACT An electrical connector assembly (10) having an improved electrical contact (12) that includes an inner drawn holder (22) and an outer drawn sleeve (20) and a method of making the assembly (10) is disclosed. A bunch of electrical conducting fine wires (24) are axially aligned and crimped within an end portion (27) of a passage (25) which extends completely through the holder (22) such that the wires (24) extend beyond one end (26) of the holder (22). The opposite end (4 ) of the holder (22) is adapted to receive a wire (54) stripped of insulation (55) so that the end (56) of the wire (54) engages the opposite end (52) of the wires (24) in electric circuit relationship therebetween. The outer sleeve (20) also has an axially extending passage (21) extending completely therethrough. The end portion (40) of the passage (21) of the sleeve (20) has a cross-sectional area larger than the cross-sec- tional area of an interior portion (38) of the passage (21) to permit the spreading of the wires (24) in the end portion (40) of the sleeve passage (21). The elec- trical contact (12) is releasably secured within an insert (14) which includes integrally formed, radially deflectable contact retaining fingers (18) to secure the contact (12) in the insert (14) about a flared annular retaining shoulder (58).
