Abstract
A press-fit contact for a plug-in connector, a conductor bar or the like, has a press-in pin at its rear end. A slot is provided in lengthwise direction of the press-in pin. At least one projection is disposed on at least one boundary face of the slot, and a recess, neighboring the projection, is disposed in the circumferential direction of the press-in pin. The recess forms together with the projection a spring element that provides at least part of the retention pressure in the pressed-in condition of the press-in pin.
