ABSTRACT:
A releasable connector for connecting tubing such as used in fuel lines has a display member to indicate when positive locking has occurred. The display member member is attached to the outside of the housing of the connector. The display member has a strap supporting a cover portion. The cover portion has a pair of resilient flanges which are insertable into an opening in the housing of the connector. The flanges extend into a chamber to engage an annular ring of a conventional male tube end. The annular portion of the tube end displaces the flanges of the display member after passing through a locking member contained in the housing of the connector. In this way, the tamper indicator indicates that the tube end has been positively received in the locking position.
