Apparatus is disclosed for forming a disconnect terminal from a supply band having a continuous first portion and a plurality of second portions spaced therealong and integrally connected to the first portion. The apparatus comprises first means for shearing the continuous first portion of the supply band at a location intermediate two adjacent second portions thereof to form a predetermined length of said supply band into a predetermined shape having a terminal portion and an integrally connected connector portion. Second means are provided for bending the length into a generally U-shaped configuration. A die is provided which has first and second receptacles therein. The first receptacle has a first predetermined configuration for the reception of at least one wire therein, and the second receptacle has a second predetermined configuration for forming the terminal portion of the predetermined length of the supply band into a preselected terminal configuration. Third means are provided for driving the length into the die whereby the connector portion will be crimped about the wire received in the first receptacle and ther terminal portion of the length will be formed into the preselected terminal configuration in the second receptacle of the die. In accordance with the invention, the preformed supply band may be manufactured separately or it may be formed in situ by the apparatus from a continuous planar supply strip.
