Abstract

A terminal fitting includes first and second terminal fitting components. The first terminal fitting component includes a first flat plate having a through hole and caulking pieces. The caulking pieces stand up from both edges in the width direction of the first flat plate. The second terminal fitting component includes a second flat plate having a projection. The projection is inserted in the through hole, an end part of the projection is crushed, and the second flat plate is caulked with the caulking pieces so that the first and second terminal fitting components are fixed to each other, thereby obtaining the terminal fitting.
