An electrical connector includes a coupling nut configured to at least partially surround a connector body. The coupling nut includes a first end and a second opposing end. The first end is configured to interface with a mating connector. The coupling nut further includes an inner thread portion located between the first and second ends; and a sealing member located at the first end. The sealing member has a base and a deformable wiper portion. The sealing member is configured to flex between deformed and non-deformed states when coupling the coupling nut to the mating connector. The base of the sealing member is in contact with an inner surface of the first end and the deformable wiper portion extends radially inwardly from the base.
