A terminal-equipped wire includes a wire and a terminal. The wire includes a core wire and an insulative sheath covering a part of the core wire. The core wire has a plurality of conductive element wires. The terminal includes a wire connection portion connected to the core wire at an end part of the wire where the core wire is exposed. Outer surfaces of the element wires and the wire connection portion are tinned.
1. A terminal-equipped wire comprising:
a wire including a core wire and an insulative sheath covering a part of the core wire, the core wire having a plurality of conductive element wires; and
a terminal including a wire connection portion connected to the core wire at an end part of the wire where the core wire is exposed and a sheath crimping portion connected to the insulative sheath,
wherein only an outer surface of each of the element wires and inner surfaces of the wire connection portion are tinned,
wherein the wire connection portion includes:
a pair of crimping pieces; and
a bottom plate, disposed between the pair of the crimping pieces, and having a face on which the exposed core wire is mounted, so that the core wire is crimped by the pair of crimping pieces and the bottom plate,
wherein only faces of the pair of the crimping pieces opposing each other and a portion of the face of the bottom plate which is in contact with the exposed core wire are tinned, and
wherein the core wire and the wire connection portion are connected only by crimping the pair of crimping pieces.
