Abstract
A packing plug assembly to be used in a connector housing to provide a seal therewithin. The assembly is composed of a resilient plug body and one or more rigid members. The resilient plug body is formed with a through hole therein to receive an insulated wire therein whereas the remaining portion of the resilient plug body is penetrated by the reinforcing members. The leading end of the wire is attached with a terminal which is securely pressed into the connector by means of rigid reinforcing member penetrating the resilient plug body to assure latching engagement therein when the plug assembly is press fitted into the connector. Such press fitting may be done by use of a rear holder adapted to be pushed into the connector after the resilient plug body.
