A pin for fixing an implant subjected to tensile load, in particular a tendon implant, having a rod-shaped body is provided. A force exerted by the implant is input onto the cross section of the body, on one side, and is output on the opposite side to an anchoring site. The cross section of the body has, on the force output side, at least two contact sites via which the input force can be output in a distributed manner. This configuration allows the pin to withstand high tensile loads without fracturing.
