Automatic clinging leads of an electric device are provided for an unassisted mounting on thru-holes of a printed circuit board. Each of the leads of the device has three continuous right-angled sections including a longitudinal proximal end section extending from the terminal region of the electric element, a latitudinal distal end section extending at right angle with respect to the proximal end section, and a bent midsection for connecting the proximal and distal end sections at the diametrically opposite right angle to the angle between the proximal and distal end sections to provide a generally laterally extending lead with three alternating bends between the three sections. The device leads can be inserted into the thru-holes of the circuit board through a 90-degree swivel motion that causes a secure flush cling of the leads and in turn a low profile mounting of the device onto the circuit board around thru-holes.
