Crimp Terminal

A method for preparing an electrical connector, comprising:

• providing a crimp terminal including a crimping segment having a base, a first side wall extending from the base, and a second side wall extending from the base opposite the first side wall, the crimping segment has a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, the first side wall has a first serration on the second surface, the second side wall has a pair of second serrations on the second surface;
• arranging a wire on the first surface along a longitudinal axis of the crimping segment;
• folding the first side wall and the second side wall toward the longitudinal axis of the crimping segment;
• and
• positioning a portion of the first serration between a pair of portions of the second serrations along the longitudinal axis and realizing a form-fit connection between the first serration and the second serrations along the longitudinal axis.
