Abstract

A connector includes: a terminal which is fixed to a conductor exposed from an end portion of a covered wire; a sealing portion which is made of an insulating and elastic material, and which integrally covers an adjacent portion of the terminal and a sheath of the covered wire; and a housing which is made of an insulating resin having rigidity higher than the elastic material, and which integrally covers whole of the sealing portion provided around the end portion of the covered wire. A terminal-side end face of the sealing portion is exposed from the housing at a bottom of an annular recess formed in a terminal-side end face of the housing so as to surround the terminal.
