ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a socket contact (1) including a back-up spring (3) and a base spring (2), the back-up spring (3) enclosing the base spring (2) in box-like manner with a first wall (11), a second wall (12), a third wall (13) and a divided fourth wall (14). The wall sections (14a,14b) of the fourth divided wall (14) are connected to each other in positive fitting manner. On one wall section (14a), there are formed at least two connecting lugs (23) arranged in the front and rear portions of the wall section (14a) as seen in the direction of insertion of the socket contact (1). The other wall section (14b) is formed with a recess (24) for each connecting lug (23), and the connecting lugs (23) are passed through the recesses (24) and bent over. For increased stability, the two wall sections (14a,14b) overlap over the full length of the back-up spring (3).
