Abstract

A wire with corrosion-resistant terminal (60) includes an aluminum wire (40) and a corrosion-resistant terminal (10) is formed from a base material made of copper alloy. The terminal (10) includes a wire connecting portion (30) connected to an end of the aluminum wire (40). The copper alloy exposed on an end part of the wire connecting portion (30) is covered with an anticorrosive (50). End parts of the base material in the wire connecting portion (30) face inward on an upper surface of the wire connecting portion (30) while winding around the end of the aluminum wire (40). A storage portion (33, 34) is surrounded by the end parts of the base material, and the anticorrosive (50) is stored in the storage portion (33, 34) in a region (R1, R2) narrower than a maximum width region (W1, W2) on the upper surface of the wire connecting portion (30).
