A strain gauge includes a flexible substrate; a resistor formed of material including at least one from among chromium and nickel, on or above the substrate; and electrodes electrically coupled to the resistor. Each electrode includes a terminal section extending from a corresponding end portion from among end portions of the resistor; a first metallic layer formed of copper, a copper alloy, nickel, or a nickel alloy, on or above the terminal section; and a second metallic layer formed of material having better solder wettability than the first metallic layer, on or above the first metallic layer.
