A conductor wire crimping portion () has depressions () that are disposed at prescribed intervals in the axial direction and that are linear locking portions. The depressions () are continuously depressed grooves on the inner surface of a crimping portion (). On an upper die (), at a portion corresponding to the conductor wire crimping portion (), a straight portion is formed, and in the front-back direction thereof, tapered portions are formed. More specifically, the upper die () is formed to have an inverted trapezoid shape, a middle portion of which protrudes in the crimping direction. Consequently, at each boundary between the straight portion and the tapered portion, a die angled portion () is formed. At an area corresponding to the straight portion of the upper die (), the depression () is provided, and at an area corresponding to the die angled section (), the depression () is provided.

In a female crimp terminal having a pressure-bonding section which allows pressure-bonding and connection of a conductor tip in an insulated wire obtained by coating a conductor with an insulating cover and having the conductor tip in which the conductor is exposed by peeling off the insulating cover in a tip side, the pressure-bonding section is constructed by arranging a conductor pressure-bonding section and a cover pressure-bonding section from a tip side to a base end side in a long length direction in this order, the conductor pressure-bonding section pressure-bonding the conductor tip, and the cover pressure-bonding section pressure-bonding a conductor tip portion in the tip side of the insulating cover, the cover pressure-bonding section is formed into a hollow shape which can surround the conductor tip portion, and the conductor pressure-bonding section is formed to have a smaller diameter than the cover pressure-bonding section, and is formed into a hollow shape which can surround the conductor tip.
