A method of deforming a pin for use in an electrical connection, and a method of making an electrical connection using a deformed pin. A normally straight pin is provided and positioned adjacent to a frame supporting a die and an operating member. The operating member is coupled to the frame and the die, whereby moving the operating member moves the die sufficiently to bend a part of the pin. The method encompasses an apparatus for accomplishing the method, as well a secure electrical connection formed by joining a female fitting with a male fitting carrying a pin modified by the method.
