A bipolar cardiac lead (100) is provided and includes a connector pin (112), a connector insulator (116), and a ring connector (130). The connector pin (112) has a proximal end and a distal end, and the proximal end is configured to engage an electrical stimulation device. The connector insulator (116) is coupled to the distal end of the connector pin (112) and may define a bore (118) configured for receiving a portion of the connector pin (112). The connector insulator (116) provides electrical insulation between the connector pin (112) and the ring connector (130). The ring connector (130) is coupled to the connector insulator (116) with a snap-fit connection and may be disposed around a portion of the connector insulator (116). The bipolar cardiac lead (100) may be an active or a passive lead.
