A plug connector part includes a housing having first and second housing parts. The housing parts are joined together parallel to a plug contact insertion direction. The housing parts have lateral surfaces which face one another when the housing parts are joined together. The housing parts have parallel grooves at their lateral surfaces. The grooves form plug contact receiving channels when the housing parts are joined together. The plug contacts have lances which engage projections of the receiving channels when the plug contacts are fully received within the receiving channels. The first housing part includes spring tongues along the grooves of the first housing part for fixing the plug contacts within the receiving channels. The spring tongues have tab-like sections which extend into the receiving channels and engage the plug contacts to fix the plug contacts within the receiving channels in a form-fit manner.

A fluid-tight contact implementation includes a plastic body and a flat contact(s). The plastic of the plastic body is composed of a non-shrinking, duroplastic material. The flat contact has a region encapsulated by the plastic body. The encapsulated region of the flat contact has a cross-sectional width which varies along an axial direction of the flat contact. Longitudinal edges of the encapsulated region of the flat contact along the axial direction are rounded.
