ABSTRACT:
A sealed electrical connector having a dual molded sealed construction with a rigid body portion and integral wire seals and an integral interfacial seal formed of a material more flexible than the rigid body. The mating connectors each receive a plurality of terminals at least partially within separate passages and one connector housing has a common cavity with which the passages communicate. A retention and keying insert received within the cavity both retains the terminals and provides modular keying to segregate otherwise identical connectors. A matable cap attached to the other member engages the retention insert. The insert and cap are formed from a material less susceptible to plastic flow than the rigid body and plastic flow of the rigid body captures the insert and the cap.
