ABSTRACT:
When a terminal fitting 3 is inserted into a cavity 2 of a connector housing 1, stabilizers 6 formed on the terminal fitting 3 fit with a retainer 8 attached to the housing 1 in order to prevent removal of the terminal fitting 3. The portion of the stabilizer 6 that makes contact with the retainer 8 is formed into a bent member 7 that projects in an approximately perpendicular direction with respect to the direction of removal of the terminal fitting 3. By doing this, the bent member 7 has increased resistance to a load applied in the removal direction and resists damage to the retainer 8.
