Abstract

A press-in contact and manufacturing method thereof, which is forced into a through-hole covered with metallic film on the inside of a hole of a printed board, for connecting to the through-hole electrically and mechanically. A press fitting section of the press-in contact can be manufactured easily. The press-in contact always exercises stable electrical and mechanical characteristic in relation to wide variation of inner diameter of the through-hole. The press-in contact includes one side being connected to a base section through respective connecting sections; and another side provided with at least a first and second contact wing sections. The base section and the first and the second contact wing sections are connected to the through-hole electrically and mechanically at the time of press fitting to the through-hole, and the first and second contact wing sections are connected to the connecting section. An internal edge section of the connecting section intervening between the first contact wing section and the second contact wing section is approximately straight shape.
