Abstract

A pin-shaped contact element that can be fixed in printed circuit board boreholes, preferably in metallized printed circuit board boreholes, has a fastening section with two parallel side parts that can move elastically towards one another and a gradually tapering insertion region, the elasticity of the insertion region being increased by providing in the insertion region an opening which runs transversely to the connecting web of the side parts and interrupts this connecting web in the transition or connecting region to the lower end of the pin.
