A sheet metal terminal is formed of spring metal such as brass with a plurality of terminals attached to one another in chain fashion by a carrier strip of scrap of the metal blank from which the terminals are formed. Each terminal has a mounting lug or tongue. The lugs or tongues of a plurality of interconnected terminals are inserted through aligned apertures in a pair of parallel rows in a printed circuit board, following which the terminals are flow soldered to the printed circuit board, and the scrap interconnection is cut off. A pair of rows of terminals thus is provided into which the terminals of a "crab pack" integrated circuit may be plugged.
