ABSTRACT:
A ferrule for an optical connector wherein the work efficiency of the manufacture is increased by reducing the time necessary for grinding and the reliability of the connection of the optical connectors is improved. A front end surface (2) of a ferrule (1) comprises a flat surface (16) vertical to the central axes of optical fiber insertion holes (3) and a slanting surface (15). A step (17) is provided at the upper end of a slanting surface (15) and the flat surface (16) protrudes frontward by the step (17) with respect to the slanting surface (15). The optical fiber insertion holes (3) open at the slanting surface (16) and pin engagement holes (4) are provided on both sides of the optical fiber insertion holes (3).
