ABSTRACT:
A connector (10) has a housing (12) with insertion holes (15) and terminal fittings (20) to be pressed into the insertion holes (15). Each terminal fitting (20) has a press-in portion (23) to be pressed into the insertion hole (15) while pushing material of the housing (12) outward. An accommodating portion (24) is continuous with the press-in portion (23) and has slanted surfaces (24A) narrowing the press-in portion (23) toward the rear side with respect to the inserting direction. Thus, material pushed out by the press-in portion (23) returns after the passage of the press-in portion (23) and engages the accommodat9ing portion (24). The width between the rear ends of the slanted surfaces (24A) of the accommodating portion (24) is equal to or smaller than the width of the insertion hole (15).
