A fine pitch contact for a ZIF socket in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention comprises a base for being fixed in the socket, a tail for being connected to a PCB, and a curved twisted body upwardly extending from the base. The body is twisted about a central line thereof and acts as both a lead-in portion and an engaging portion to reduce the size thereof thereby promoting an increase in the density of the contacts of the ZIF socket. In accordance with a second embodiment of the present invention, a fine pitch contact for a ZIF socket comprises a base, a tail and a body. The body comprises a first bent portion formed proximate a free end thereof and a second bent portion formed by bending out of the plane of the body along an oblique bend line. The first and the second bent portions respectively perform a lead-in function and an engaging function to reduce the size of the body.
