ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to a metal plate terminal rolled into a barrel configuration having a longitudinal open seam defining a wire receiving slot. The terminal defines wire gripping jaws on either side of the seam. A transverse slot intersects the open seam dividing the jaws into two tandem pairs. An enlarged flared entryway is provided in the second pair of jaws for the open seam. The first set of jaws have tab portions projecting toward the second pair of jaws for guiding a wire along the open seam from the first set of jaws to the second. The transverse slot is of substantial width to prevent abrasion of the jaws with one another. The transverse slot further is of arcuate configuration, perpendicularly intersecting the open seam and incising one-fourth of a circumference of said barrel configuration on either side of said open seam.
