<p>A retention system for a rear insert-rear release tuning fork-type socket contact or pin contact having a flat stamped body section with a rectangular opening formed therein. The insulator for the contact is formed with a passage having a pair of integral laterally resilient retention elements on opposite sides thereof. These elements are spread apart when the contact is inserted into the passage and contract into the opening in the contact when the latter is aligned therewith to secure the contact in the passage. An extraction tool inserted through the rear of the insulator passage serves to spread the retention elements apart, thus allowing the contact to be removed rearwardly from the passage.</p> |
