Electric wire with terminal and manufacturing method of electric wire with terminal

Abstract

A terminal-equipped electric wire includes a terminal, an electric wire connected to the terminal, and a tubular component covering an electrical contact between the terminal and the electric wire. The terminal includes a rod-shaped contact portion, the electric wire includes a conductor core wire electrically connected to the contact portion, and the tubular component is disposed such that the conductor core wire is sandwiched between an outer peripheral surface of the contact portion and an inner tubular surface of the tubular component, and the tubular component presses the conductor core wire toward the outer peripheral surface of the contact portion to crimp the contact portion and the conductor core wire. The terminal includes an engagement portion having an uneven shape on the outer peripheral surface of the contact portion. The conductor core wire of the electric wire is pressed by the tubular component to engage with the engagement portion.
