A terminal 1 which maintains electrical connectivity between a mating terminal and contact spring pieces, reduce size and firmly fixes the contact spring pieces at a terminal main body, includes the conductive, rectangular tube-shaped terminal main body 3 into which the mating terminal 2 is inserted
A terminal 1 which maintains electrical connectivity between a mating terminal and contact spring pieces, reduce size and firmly fixes the contact spring pieces at a terminal main body, includes the conductive, rectangular tube-shaped terminal main body 3 into which the mating terminal 2 is inserted, the plurality of one conductive contact spring pieces 18 extending from one wall 5 to the other wall 6 of the terminal main body and tilted relative to a mating terminal insertion direction, and a plurality of the other conductive contact spring pieces 19 extending from the other wall to the one wall and tilted relative to the insertion direction. The one and the other contact spring pieces 78, 79 are arranged alternatively along the insertion direction. The terminal main body includes a spring member 4 having one and the other basal plate portions 15, 16, a connecting plate portion 17 connecting the respective basal plate portions, and an engagement portion 20 at the connecting plate portion which engages with a locking portion 11 of the terminal main body 3.
