Abstract: In the case of a housing seal (3, 3′) for cable through-duct apertures that can be inserted into receptacles (2, 2′) for the cable through-duct apertures, whereby housing seal (3, 3′) has at least two sealing areas (7, 7′or 9, 9′) with different sealing contours and can be inserted into receptacles (2, 2′) in different directions as desired, a low overall height and the use of the housing seal with the same shape for the inlet and outlet apertures of a housing are possible even when asymmetrically profiled cables are used if two sealing areas (7, 7′or 9, 9′) are provided on adjacent sides of housing seal (3, 3′), whereby one side points in the direction of the cable through-duct.

Abstract: A cable plug connector (1) with at least one contact (3) fitted in a chamber of a contact carrier (2) and taking the form of a plug (8) which has an insulation displacement section (9) at its connection end (11) to contact an insulated cable lead (5) inserted into a blind hole (24) in the contact carrier (2) by means of an insulation displacement slot (16) fitted in a contact plate (14) running transversely to the plug-in direction, the insulation displacement section (9) is a separate part passing with the contact plate (14) through an aperture (20) in the connection end (11) of the plug (8). The contacts (3) are thus simply and economically suitable for the use of different lead diameters by exchanging the insulation displacement section (9). They are also usable with advantage especially in cable plug connectors (1) produced by injection molding because no special measures are needed to seal the plug contact regions.
