Abstract
Two-piece socket contact assemblies and methods for manufacturing these assemblies are provided. The manufacturing process includes providing a blank strip of indefinite length, piercing the strip to provide a plurality of apertures, profiling a contact body shape along at least an edge portion of the blank to form precursors of a contact body, forming the precursors into a predetermined configuration, plating these precursors, and thereafter assembling them with a coaxially disposed sleeve.
