Abstract: A barrel terminal socket is constructed by forming a sheet metal blank with uniformly spaced, parallel, longitudinal strips integrally connected at their opposite ends to transversely extending webs. The blank is then formed into a cylinder, inserted into a close-fitting cylindrical sleeve and one end of the blank is fixedly secured to the sleeve. The opposite end of the blank is then rotated relative to the sleeve through a predetermined angle and then fixedly secured in its rotated position to the sleeve.
