ABSTRACT:
A waterproof connector includes :a connector housing (11) formed with a plurality of oval terminal insertion holes (12) arranged at close intervals in a minor axis direction of the oval terminal insertion holes; and a waterproof plug (30) for sealing a gap between the wire (4) inserted into the terminal insertion hole (12) and an inner wall of the terminal insertion hole, having an inner cylindrical portion (32) and an outer cylindrical portion (33). The inner cylindrical portion (32) air-tightly is fitted to an outer circumference of the wire (4). The outer cylindrical portion (33) brought into tight contact with the inner wall of the terminal insertion hole (12) when the waterproof plug is pressure inserted into the terminal insertion hole. The outer cylindrical portion (33) is formed Integral with the inner cylindrical portion (32) so as to provide a hollow cylindrical portion (35) between the inner and outer cylindrical portions. The hollow cylindrical portion (35) absorbs deformation of the outer cylindrical portion pressure inserted into the terminal insertion hole.
