Abstract
The receptacle terminal has an electrical wire connection portion electrically connected to an electrical wire and an electrical connection portion receiving an opposing terminal pin. The electrical connection portion has a pair of walls accommodating a resilient piece. The resilient piece urges the pin against one of the pair of walls to pinch the pin therebetween. The receptacle terminal is constituted by a blank having parts corresponding to the base wall, the crimping piece, the pair of walls, and the resilient piece. The resilient piece has a joining piece and an extended strip joined to the joining piece. The extended strip of the blank extends along an insertion direction of the pin. The joining piece projects from a longitudinal edge of the one of the pair of walls.
