Abstract
An insulation-displacement terminal fitting ( ) has plate-shaped blades ( ) disposed before V-shaped contact portions ( ) along a wire-insertion direction. The blades ( ) make cuts (C) in an insulation coating (Wb) of a wire (W). The insulation coating (Wb) then is cut open by the V-shaped contact portions ( ). A cut-open piece (Wc) of the insulation coating (Wb) that is caught by the contact portions ( ) is not forcibly stretched. Thus, a core (Wa) is not pulled in a direction to be withdrawn from a clearance between the contact portions ( ). An accommodation space ( ) in which the caught cut-open piece (Wc) of the insulation coating (Wb) is accommodated is located within a height range of side walls ( ). Thus, the cut-open piece (Wc) of the insulation coating (Wb) does not project above the side walls ( ).
