A connector preferably for crimpable coupling of either bare or insulated flat conductive material such as the foil shield of shielded cable to further conductive material and comprising a base portion and a selectively formed arcuate portion arranged in spaced, opposing latchable relationship, which portions are provided, respectively, with, in one embodiment, piercing teeth on one of the opposing surfaces and pressure means in the form of protuberances on the other for urging the interposed conductive material against the piercing teeth as the connector is crimped thereabout. One or more latching tabs and their mating apertures are provided and selectively arranged for locking interengagement as the convexedly formed deformable arcuate portion is compressively flattened upon the crimping of the connector about the conductive material. Inwardly projecting deflectable protuberances may be provided on one or both of the connector portions for coupling a further conductor thereto.
