Abstract
A plug contact for electrically contacting a circuit board by insertion of the plug contact into a contact hole of the circuit board, the plug contact having two resilient contact legs, a terminal region, and a connecting region which connects the two contact legs to one another and to the terminal region, wherein the plug contact is punched out of a metallic flat material in one piece. As a result, the plug contact only has a small overall height, and the two contact arms each have a first region and a second region which are arranged at an angle α relative to one another, such that the two contact legs are bent approximately in an L shape, and wherein the two first regions adjoin the connection region and the ends of the two second regions form the free ends of the contact legs.
