An electrical connector ( 1 ) includes a longitudinal insulative housing ( 10 ), a number of contacts ( 20 ) and a pick up cap. The insulative housing includes a first side wall ( 13 ) and a second side wall ( 14 ) opposed to the first side wall. The first side wall includes first and second longitudinally arranged thicker portions ( 131, 132 ) and a transitional portion ( 133 ) having a lateral dimension less than and spacing the first and the second thicker portions. The second side wall includes a third thicker portion. Each of the first, the second and the third thicker portions defines a number of passageways ( 134 ) therein. The pick up cap is attached to the housing, the pick up cap having a baseplate which defines a first plane provided for gripping by a vacuum device and a second plane parallel to the first plane, a plurality of engaging legs extending from the second plane of the baseplate and propping on inner face of the first, second portions of the first side wall and a plurality of resilient arms extending from the second plane and propping on the inner face of the transitional portion of the first side wall, so as to prevent the deformation of the housing during the process of being heated.
