Abstract
A press-fit terminal has a press-fit portion that includes a first piece and a second piece that are formed as a result of the metal plate being split into two parts in a width direction of the metal plate by a long slit extending in a lengthwise direction of the metal plate. The first piece is curved to protrude in one direction of the thickness direction of the metal plate, and the second piece is curved to protrude in the other direction of the thickness direction of the metal plate. Each of the first piece and the second piece includes a large thickness portion that is provided at a protruding end portion and two small thickness portions that are provided on both sides in the lengthwise direction with the large thickness portion interposed between the two small thickness portions.
