An igniter for a gas generator comprises a pole body (14) having at least one connection pin (16, 18), a retaining ring (20) and an insulation ring (22), wherein the insulation ring (22) spaces apart the at least one connection pin (16, 18) from the retaining ring (20) and electrically insulates it relative to the same. The retaining ring (20) consists of a metal and the insulation ring (22) consists of a plastic. In order to produce an igniter (10) for a gas generator at least one connection pin (16, 18), a retaining ring (20) and an insulation ring (22) are provided, the connection pin (16, 18), the insulation ring (22) and the retaining ring (20) are fitted inside one another in such a way that the connection pin (16, 18) is surrounded by the insulation ring (22) and the insulation ring (22) is surrounded by the retaining ring (20), and the retaining ring (20), the insulation ring (22) and the connection pin (16, 18) are compressed in a compression step in which at least the retaining ring (20) is deformed and the retaining ring (20), the insulation ring (22) and the connection pin (16, 18) are connected to one another securely and without play.
