ABSTRACT:
A contact terminal has a termination section at one end thereof including a spaced pair of axially-extending slots within each of which a respective one of a pair of conductor wires is held in interference fit for weld termination such as by laser welding. The terminal can be a ground terminal for the pair of ground conductors of a tri-lead cable. The terminal is stamped from a metal blank and its termination section is formed by bending upwardly side portions thereof to create parallel vertical side walls, and bending back along the termination section a tab portion of selected width having parallel vertical side surfaces. The slots are defined by the side surfaces of the bent back tab portion and the respective side walls.
