A terminal for mating with an exposed conductor of a flat flexible cable comprises an electrical contact and a crimping portion extending from the electrical contact. The crimping portion includes a base defining at least one protrusion extending therefrom, and first and second sidewalls extending from the base. The first sidewall includes a first section attached to the base and a second section attached to the first section on an end opposite the base. In a crimped state of the terminal, the first section of the first sidewall is folded into an opening of the terminal for crimping the conductor within the opening and against the protrusion, and the second section of the first sidewall is folded so as to overlap or oppose a side of the first section opposite the conductor.
