PURPOSE:To enhance the productivity of the title treatment method by a method wherein the parallelism of signal lines in the exposed region of the signal lines is ensured and the signal lines are connected easily to a connector. CONSTITUTION:In the terminal treatment method of a flat cable in which a plurality of parallel signal lines are covered with an insulating coating layer so as to be flat board-shaped, a prescribed region including the width direction from the terminal of the flat cable 2 up to a prescribed position near the terminal is pressed from both faces until the thickness becomes nearly the diameter of each signal line 21, and its pressure is released. After that, each cut 22a having a depth nearly equal to a pressure amount along the boundary line is formed in the insulating coating layer 22 near the boundary line between the prescribed region and the unpressed region of the flat cable 2, and an insulating coating layer 22' up to the terminal from the cut 22a is moved to the side of the terminal within a range not exceeding the length of the prescribed region. |
