A rivet-type contact of the present invention has a head part made of a contact material, and a leg part narrower than the head part in width and configured to be deformed at fixation. The leg part includes a flange part larger than the leg part in diameter, in an end part of the side of the head part, the flange part is embedded in the head part such that a lower end surface of the flange part and a lower end surface of the head part become approximately flat, and a length (l) between an endmost part of the flange part and a starting point of the leg part satisfies l
