Insulation-displacement terminal fitting

摘要

An insulation-displacement terminal (T) includes opposed side walls (12) and a wire-receiving space therebetween. Insulation-displacement portions (17) project from the side walls (12) and into the wire-receiving space. Each insulation-displacement portion (17) has two bases (18) that project from longitudinally spaced positions on the corresponding side wall (12). A blade (19) has two panels folded from the respective bases (18) and projecting further into the wire-receiving space. The folded blades (19) cut sharply into the resin coating (Wa) of a wire (W) urged into the wire-receiving space, and the bases (19) resist pulling forces on the wire (W). Therefore, a loose movement of the wire (W) in its longitudinal direction can be prevented.
