ABSTRACT:
A method of mounting a rubber plug to a wire used for a waterproof connector in which the fluctuation in the position of the rubber plug about the wire is reduced. The mounting method comprises the steps of: accommodating the rubber plug in a mounting jig such that the thick portion of the rubber plug is positioned at open end of the mounting jig; grasping a tip of the wire between a pair of guides such that the tip opposes the thick portion of the rubber plug; aligning an axis of the wire with that of the wire insertion hole of the rubber plug; moving the mounting jig toward the wire to insert the rubber plug into the wire while moving the pair of guides in the same direction as the mounting jig moves; projecting the tip of the wire from the thin portion of the rubber plug by the sum of the predetermined length and a supplementary length; moving the mounting jig in the direction away from the pair of guides to release the rubber plug therefrom; moving the pair of guides toward the mounting jig while pushing the rubber plug by the length of the supplemental length toward the tip of the wire to project the wire from the end of the thin portion of the rubber plug by the predetermined length.
