  • Patent number: 11476607
    Abstract: An electrical connector consists of a connector housing (10) and at least one electrical contact element (1). The connector housing (10) and/or the electrical contact element (1) have a lead content of <0.1 weight percent. A method for manufacturing a contact element from a blank which has a lead content of <0.1 weight percent, uses the following method steps: Loading the blank into a manufacturing machine; producing a pin region or a socket region for electrically contacting another, opposite contact element; producing a fixing region for fixing the contact element in an insulating body; producing a crimp region for electrically connecting a conductor to the contact element or finishing the crimp region if the blank has already been previously prepared on a different machine; and removing the finished contact element from the manufacturing machine.
