CONTACT AND PROBE USING SAME

摘要

Provided are: a contact, which does not have processing strain generated therein even if the contact is long and thin, and has long service life and low manufacture cost; and a probe using the contact. A bellows body (20), a fixed section (30) connected to one end portion (21) of the bellows body (20), and a movable section (40) connected to the other end portion (22) of the bellows body (20) are integrally formed by means of an electroforming method. Then, adjacent circular portions (24, 24) of the bellows body (20) are short-circuited by being in contact with each other when the bellows body (20) is compressed by pressing the movable section (40).
