ABSTRACT:
In a rear holder-attached connector (1), a relatively-thick protective rib (10) with a width (B) projects outwardly from opposite sides of a housing (2), and is disposed between upper and lower terminal receiving chambers (3). This width (B) is larger than a width of rear holders (20a, 20b), and this rib (10) protects the rear holders (20a, 20b) so that these rear holders, provisionally retained on the housing (2) within a metal-mold assembly, will not be discharged from the metal-mold assembly to drop, and will not be disengaged from the housing even upon contact with another housing. The provision of the protective rib (10) also serves to provide a good flow of a resin poured from the rear side of the housing (2) during the molding operation, and therefore thin partition walls, forming the terminal receiving chambers (3), can be positively molded, thereby enhancing the yield of the molded housings.
