Abstract

An electrical terminal is disclosed having a crimp barrel. The crimp barrel has a base; and opposing side walls extending from the base and each has an opposing end region. The opposing side walls have a conductor receiving region in which the sidewalls have an F-crimp when crimped to stripped conductors of a wire; a wire insulation receiving region for receiving an insulation covered portion of the wire; and a transition region positioned between the conductor receiving region, and the wire insulation receiving region. The opposing end regions in the transition region are overlapped in the circumferential direction when crimped to surround the wire.
