ABSTRACT:
An insulation piercing terminal is so designed that, by press working a piece of metal plate, an electrical contact section which is engaged with a mating terminal, and a wire clamping section are formed respectively at the front end portion and at the rear end portion, and an insulation piercing conductive section is formed between those sections, the insulation piercing conductive section being U-shaped in section, having right and left side walls, and a bottom wall, and the right and left side walls of the insulation piercing conductive section are partially cut and bent inwardly to form a pair of right and left insulation piercing blades which defines an insulation piercing slot. In the insulation piercing terminal, the bottom wall of the insulation piercing conductive section is a curved bottom wall which is curved downwardly in such a manner that the bottom wall is smoothly continuous to the right and left side walls, and the curved bottom wall has stability supports so that the curved bottom wall is stably set on a flat surface.
