A flat galvanic cell having a plastic envelope surrounding and sealing its active elements is disclosed with a connector extending from a metal plate and piercing the envelope wall. A seal against electrolyte leakage is provided as a subassembly comprising the connector secured to the metal plate which is coated with a resin, a graphite dispersion in polyvinyl chloride, and bonded to the interior face of an envelope wall by an adhesive, a butadiene based elastomeric hot melt adhesive. The subassembly is sealed to the other elements of the envelope at the wall portion margins extending beyond the metal plate.
