A range of spring loaded contacts whose fitment method is from behind the plastic moulding or housing.
A collar is found at the back end of the spring contact. This acts as a stop enabling the spring contact to be mounted at a set position. A barb is often used midway down the barrel to permanently hold the spring contact in position once fitted.
The movie shows a typical installation using the PD10JS spring contact and the IPP2S contact land.
