The terminal for electrical connection includes a pin (2) with a recess (9), partially filled with a contact grease, to accommodate the end of an electric cable (22) and including a crimping section (5) designed to be radially deformed and further includes a stopper (15) to retain the grease (14) in the recess (9). The stopper has a transverse membrane (16) designed to be broken by the electric cable (22) on insertion thereof into the recess (9) and at least one portion arranged in the crimping section (5) such that the stopper (15) leads to the sealing of the connection after crimping. The grease (14) is arranged between the base (12) of the recess (9) and the membrane (16). The assembly method includes the step of breaking the transverse membrane (16) by element of the end of the electric cable (22) on insertion thereof in the recess (9).
Terminal for electrical connection, comprising a shank having a recess (9) partially filled with a contact grease, designed to receive the end of an electric cable (22) and comprising a crimping portion (5) suitable for being deformed radially, characterized in that said terminal also comprises a stopper (15, 115, 215, 315) for keeping said grease (14) in said recess (9), which has a transverse membrane (16, 116, 216, 316) suitable for being torn by the electric cable (22) when it is inserted into said recess (9) and which has at least one portion placed in said crimping portion (5), said grease (14) being placed between the bottom (12) of said recess (9) and said membrane (16, 116, 216, 316).
