Abstract: A connector terminal capable of improving corrosion resistance even if a metal base material is made of Fe or Fe-based alloy. The connector terminal is made of a terminal material including a plating film on a surface of the metal base material. The metal base material is made of Fe or Fe-based alloy. The connector terminal includes a base material exposed part formed by exposing the metal base material and a coating film made of anti-rust oil and covering a surface of the base material exposed part. The base material exposed part can be present at a punched fracture surface formed by punching the terminal material and/or at a bent portion formed by bending the terminal material.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a plated terminal for connector which requires a smaller insertion force by reducing a friction coefficient and a terminal pair formed using such a plated terminal for connector. An alloy containing layer (1) made of tin and palladium and containing a tin-palladium alloy is formed on a surface of a terminal base material (2) made of copper or copper alloy. Here, the alloy containing layer (1) is preferably such that domain structures of a first metal phase (11) made of an alloy of tin and palladium are formed in a second metal phase (12) made of pure tin or an alloy having a higher ratio of tin to palladium than in the first metal phase (11).

Abstract: A tying device for tying a wiring harness having a first annular holder for holding general wires, which has a first slit for inserting therethrough the general wires into the first annular holder; and a second annular holder for holding specific wires, which has a second slit for inserting therethrough the specific wires into the second annular holder and has a diameter smaller than that of the first annular holder so as to extend into the first annular holder from an inner peripheral surface of the first annular holder through a rib; wherein the second annular holder is positioned at a central portion of the first annular holder such that a space for accommodating the general wires is defined between the inner peripheral surface of the first annular holder and an outer peripheral surface of the second annular holder.
