ABSTRACT A boardlock (52) is adapted to secure a connector (10) to a printed circuit board (26). The body portion (54) of the boardlock (52) is disposed in a recess (34) in the connector housing (12) flange (28) in an interference fit. First (64) and second (66) pairs of legs depend from the body portion (54) and extend to respective free ends (68; 70). Each of the legs (64; 66) has a diverging section (72; 74) intermediate the body means (54) and the free ends (68; 70) and a converging section (76; 78) intermediate the diverging section (72; 74) and the free end (68, 70). The diverging (72; 74) and converging (76; 78) sections diverge and converge, respectively, with respect to the axis (58) of the boardlock (52) in the direction from the body portion (54) to the free ends (68; 70). The diverging sections (72; 74) of the first and second (64; 66) pairs of legs overlap in axial range thereby extending the thickness of the printed circuit board (26) that can be accommodated.
