An electrical connector which includes a right-angle header (10) having at least one row of contact pins (20, 25) comprises stabilizing means (30) positioned at at least one end of the row of pins, and means (50) for retaining a printed circuit board against the stabilizing means when soldering the connector to the printed circuit board. The stabilizing means preferably includes a pair of wings (30), one at each end of the row of pins, wherein one face of each wing is planar which is adapted to contact the side of the printed circuit board on which the electrical connector is mounted. The retaining means preferably includes at least one projection (50) which cooperates with the stabilizing means to retain the connector in position on the printed circuit board. <IMAGE> |
