A flexible electrical pin type contact including a plurality of elongate arm members, the opposed ends of each arm member being folded back toward each other so that intermediate sections on each arm member are flexibly outwardly bent from each other for wiping engagement with the inner surface of a mating socket. The intermediate section on each arm member divides the arm member into forward and rearward arm portions that taper toward each other to form a narrowed region in the intermediate section. The flared edge portions of each forward or rearward arm portion are folded back toward each other so that the radius of curvature established in each arm portion is smaller than the radius of curvature of the inner surface of the tubular socket. This configuration keeps burrs formed along the edges of the arm members away from the inner surface of the socket while also perserving a high degree of arm flexibililty to allow engagement of the pin contact with different sockets that vary somewhat in diameter.
