Abstract: The press-fit terminal includes a leading end portion, a base end portion and a connection portion. The connection portion includes a slit extending through from the front side to the rear side and a pair of conductive portions opposed to each other across the slit. An outer contour of each one of the pair of conductive portions in the connection portion includes an outer first portion in which a first arcuate portion formed arcuate and a first straight portion formed straight are disposed in this order from the center portion toward the base end portion. Each one of the pair of first straight portions is formed with a tilt by an angle ranging from 5 degrees or more to 10 degrees or less relative to a center axis of the slit.
