Abstract

A female terminal fitting () includes a tubular main body () and a resilient contact piece () deflectably arranged in the main body portion (). When being inserted into the main body portion (), a mating male tab () comes into contact with the resilient contact piece () to deflect and deform the resilient contact piece () toward a base wall () of the main body portion (). Excessive deflection regulating portions () arranged at positions facing the resilient contact piece () in a deflecting direction of the resilient contact piece () and configured to regulate excessive deflection of the resilient contact piece () are provided on the base wall () of the main body portion (). The excessive deflection regulating portions () are bottom-raised toward the resilient contact piece () with respect to reference surfaces of the base wall ().
