370-79-0250 Abstract One piece socket (1) or pin type (37) electrical contacts are stamped from a sheet of resilient, electrically conductive material and rolled into a tubular body (3) having a center section (11, 39) of enlarged diameter which functions as a C spring and is radially compressed to insert or remove the contact from either the front or rear of a bore (33, 41) in a connector (31, 45). An annular groove (17, 47) in the center section (11, 39) engages a retention ring (35, 49) in the bore (33, 41) to lock the contact (1, 37) in place and the center section (11, 39) bears against the wall of the bore (33, 41) to stabilize the connection. The resilient fingers (19) forming the socket type contact (1) taper inward and then flare outward to form a funnel (21) which guides the pin (53) of a mating pin type contact (37) into a narrow neck (55) in the socket where it is wiped clean and firmly gripped. The contacts (1, 37) may be provided with conventional termina- tions or with a self-terminating wire well having tines (25) and ribs (27) which cooperate to grip a stripped or unstripped wire which is first longitudinally pushed into and then pulled back toward the wire receiving end of the contact (1, 37).
