Abstract

An insert mounting and a method for inserting and mounting components in holes of printed wiring boards, in particular for plug connectors or parts thereof, include connection pegs of two components being inserted in a T-shaped basic configuration into a hole in a printed wiring board from opposite sides of the printed wiring board, for fastening the two components in the printed wiring board hole. The connection pegs have a rectangular basic cross sectional shape. One of the connection pegs forms a crossbar of the T-shaped basic configuration and is introduced first into the printed wiring board hole. At least one of the connection pegs is elastically deformable for forming an elastic insertion zone of the connection pegs of the two components in a state in which the connection pegs are disposed in the printed wiring board hole.
