Abstract
A continuous electrical connector or component part of plastic or metal manufactured by injection molding of axial discrete segments. A novel in-line chaining structure is provided for interlocking adjacent discrete segments. The interlocking structure comprises complementary reduced-size fitted end units pinned together by a matching component, or a multi-component splicing device which engages one or more holes in adjacent segment units. The resultant strip can be wound up on a reel.
