A terminal-equipped electric wire includes a terminal and a coated conductive wire, which are electrically connected to each other. A crimp part of the terminal is a part that crimps the coated conductive wire and includes a conductive wire crimp part crimping a conductive wire exposed from a coating on a tip-end side of the coated conductive wire, and a coating crimp part crimping the coating of the coated conductive wire. The coated conductive wire includes a tension member disposed in an approximate center of a cross section, and a conductive wire including a plurality of conductors disposed on an outer periphery of the tension member. The tension member includes a plurality of strands. The conductive wire is crimped at the conductive wire crimp part from the entire circumference of the circumferential direction of the conductive wire. Preferably, a tensile strength of the tension member is greater than that of the conductive wire.

Terminal-equipped electric wire, wiring harness, and method for manufacturing terminal-equipped electric wire

A terminal-equipped electric wire includes a terminal and a coated conductive wire, which are electrically connected to each other. A crimp part of the terminal is crimped to the coated conductive wire, and has a conductive wire crimp part, which is crimped to a conductive wire that is exposed from a coating on the front-end side of the coated conductive wire, and a coating crimp part, which is crimped to the coating of the coated conductive wire. On the front-end side (terminal body side) of the conductive wire crimp part, an electric wire holding part, which applies a relatively strong holding force on the conductive wire, is provided, On the rear-end side (coating crimp part side) of the conductive wire crimp part, a conductive part for achieving conduction with the conductive wire is formed.
