Abstract:
1. An electric wire with a crimp terminal, comprising an elongated conductor portion that extends in a longitudinal direction, an outer peripheral surface of the conductor portion into which a plurality of metal element wires is bundled together being covered with an insulating sheath portion into the electric wire, the plurality of metal element wires including peripheral metal element wires that constitute the outer peripheral surface of the conductor and that contact the insulating sheath portion, the conductor portion defining a terminal portion that is exposed, and a conductor crimping portion of the crimp terminal that is crimped onto the exposed conductor portion, the exposed conductor portion includes a one side portion side, wherein terminal surfaces of the plurality of metal element wires are cut in alignments so that the terminal surface of at least one of the peripheral metal element wires extends longitudinally further than the terminal surface of another of the peripheral metal element wires, the at least one of the peripheral metal element wires being disposed farthest in a radial direction from the one side portion side of the exposed conductor portion; wherein the exposed conductor portion has a plurality of steps formed on the one side portion side.
