Abstract: An electrical contact (10) for an electrical connector including a sleeve (20) and a plurality of axially-aligned fine wires (30), with each wire having an acutely angled end portion (32) at one end thereof and with the plurality of wires secured together at the other end to form a bundle (40). Preferably, the wires are secured together by a weld (50) formed by a capacitor (210) discharging across a gap (300) to the wires, although other securing methods could be used. The bundle (40) of wires then may be inserted into the sleeve of the contact (10) with the angled ends (32) forward in the sleeve (20) and the weld (50) rearward in the sleeve. Said sleeve then is crimped inwardly (25) forward of, or including, the welded portion, to hold the bundle (40) in place within the sleeve.
