A connector (2) which is particularly suitable for angled, surface mount connections has improved anti-solder and/or flux wicking characteristics which substantially prevent the contamination of contact portions (12) of the connector terminals (1). Terminals (1) for the connector (2) are provided which have a housing engagement portion (6) at one end and a bifurcated portion at the other end. The bifurcated end portion includes a contact portion (7) and a solder tail portion (8) which are separated by an irregular intervening space (10) of varying width. The depth and the varying width cooperate to prevent the wicking of molten solder and/or flux to the contact surface (12) of the terminal. IMAGE
