Abstract
An electrical feedthrough and a method for producing an electrical feedthrough for contacting a heating conductor of an electrically heatable honeycomb body, comprising an electrically conductive pin, an electrically insulating insulation layer and a bushing in which the insulation layer and the pin are at least partially accommodated. The pin is arranged centrally and at least some portions of it are completely surrounded in the circumferential direction by the insulation layer. The three elements are connected to one another by a form fit and/or a force fit such that they cannot be separated non-destructively.

An electrical feedthrough configured to contact a heating conductor of an electrically heatable honeycomb body, comprising:
- a pin that is electrically conductive;
- an insulation layer that is electrically insulating;
- and
- a bushing in which the insulation layer and the pin are at least partially accommodated,
- wherein the pin is arranged centrally and at least some portions of the pin are completely surrounded in a circumferential direction by the insulation layer,
- wherein the pin, the insulation layer, and the bushing are connected to one another by a form fit and/or a force fit such that they cannot be separated non-destructively.
A method for producing an electrical feedthrough having an electrically conductive pin, an electrically insulating insulation layer;
- and a bushing in which the insulation layer and the pin are at least partially accommodated, comprising:
- arranging the pin centrally and at least some portions of the pin are completely surrounded in a circumferential direction by the insulation layer;
- applying a force component to at least one of the components from the bushing, pin or insulation layer after assembly;
- and
- producing a permanent plastic deformation of at least that component to which the force component has been applied.
