An electrical contact adapted to be mounted in a plated-through hole and having means to improve solder wicking and degassing. A conical transitional surface between the bottom of the contact body and the solder tail is provided with a plurality of projecting ribs. When inserted in a plated-through hole, because the body is larger than the hole, the ribs rest on the rim of the hole and provide degassing paths between them. The contact may be mounted individually in electrical panel boards, or in arrays in insulators wherein the contacts receive the leads of dual-in-line packages or other electronic components. |
