Abstract
A terminal fitting 10 having a wire barrel 31 crimping the terminal of an exposed core wire 42 of a coated electric wire 40, an insulation barrel 32 provided in the rear of the wire barrel 31 and fixing the coated electric wire 40, and a coupling portion 33 coupling the wire barrel 31 and the insulation barrel 32 to each other. The coupling portion 33 having a surface coming in contact with the coated electric wire 40 has a lead-in groove 36 to introduce an anti-corrosive agent. The lead-in groove extends in a direction intersecting with the axial direction of the coated electric wire 40 such that at least one of end portions is opened at the side edge of the coupling portion 33.
