Abstract
A secondary battery terminal is provided which is constituted by dissimilar metals and which has a structure capable of preventing liquid from penetrating into a boundary between the dissimilar metals of the terminal. The terminal disclosed herein includes a plate-like metallic first member and a second member which is metallically joined to one plate surface of the first member and which is constituted by a metal that differs from a metal constituting the first member. A first stepped portion constituted by an end of the second member, which is more protruded than the one plate surface of the first member, is formed at a boundary between the plate surface and the metallically-joined second member and, further, a second stepped portion which protrudes from the one plate surface of the first member is formed on the plate surface.
