ABSTRACT:
A sealed connector for an automotive air conditioning system compresses a sealing ring between accurately ground, axially opposed sealing surfaces of a pair of mated connector blocks that are bolted together. A steel retainer to which the sealing ring is molded prevents it from being blown out under high pressure, and one of the connector blocks is relieved to accommodate the retainer, thereby preventing interference with the clamping of the blocks. Seal compression is even and complete.
