Abstract

A plurality of pins (14) are placed on a carrier (12) in a spaced, parallel arrangement and held in place by an adhesive-backed strip (13). Thereafter tabs (39) are formed in the strip (13) and are pressed into pockets (41) of the carrier (12) as the pockets are being formed. This enhances the securance of the strip (13) with the carrier (12) and holds the pins (14) in the spaced, parallel arrangement.
