The first metal plate includes a fixed contact, and the second metal plate includes a main portion, a bridge section extending from the main portion, and a bowl-shaped movable contact on a forward end of the bridge section. The housing is provided with a recess for exposing the fixed contact on the inner bottom face thereof, a plurality of caulking walls formed in an annular form around the recess, and gaps for relieving nonuniform thickening of the caulking walls which occurs at the time of caulking.
