Date May 3, 1990.In certain connector plugs use is made of contact strips (13) mounted next to each other such that at one end they form exposed contact springs (8) while at their other ends they have a loop portion (14) provided with a V- of U-shaped recess (16) for connection with a connector wire. The dimensions are rather narrow, and there is hardly room for two such recesses in each loop portion. However, there is an expressed demand for connecting two wires to some of the contact strips, and according to the invention this is made possible by shaping each strip (13) with two loops (14) mutually spaced in the longitudinal direction of the strip, where there is better room than in the width or height direction. With conventional shaping technique it is difficult to provide two loops (14) on one contact strip (13), but the invention comprises a method, which makes this possible, viz. by arranging for an active feeding of strip material to the loop areas from both sides of each of these.
