A terminal pin, having a compressed portion the cross section of which is roughly V-shaped, has a pair of arms (9) and a pair of convex trails (8) with a concave trail (7) between the convex trails. The pair of arms have a uniform thickness and are deformed inwardly when pressed into a through hole defined in a PCB. After being pressed into the through hole, the compressed portion contacts the internal surface of the through hole at four locations, namely, at a pair of external surfaces provided at the ends of the pair of arms and the pair of convex trails. |
