The contact (1) has two spring arms (4) whose ends comprise contact regions, where the contact is formed from a hollow cylinder. An axial slot (3) is brought into the hollow cylinder, where the two spring arms are formed at the axial slot. The contact regions are designed as a truncated pyramid that is formed with a curved top surface, where the curved top surface of the truncated pyramid produces two touching contacts with a pin contact. The spring arms are flexed to each other in a radial direction and exhibit a wall thickness that is varied in an axial direction.
