Crimp terminal and process for producing the same

摘要

A crimp terminal having a crimp barrel crimped to an end of an electric wire is disclosed. The crimp barrel has a body of semicircular cross section and a couple of crimp wings which integrally extend from ends of the circular arc of the body and are caulked around the end of the electric wire in a mutually overlapped state. The crimp wings are overlapped and locked so they prevent each other from moving in a direction to release the overlap. It is preferred that each of crimp wings has a hook portion mutually locked on a locking surface. Also, a process for producing the crimp terminal is disclosed.
