A through bulkhead electrical connector (10) is disclosed of the type having interfacial seals (30, 32) on either side of the connector precisely located axially for obtaining an effective interfacial seal. A standard glass bead (20) is fused to the connector shell (12) at one end thereof with carbon fixturing (44) enabling precise location after fusing. The opposite face is defined by a standard resinous insert (38) axially located by engagement with a shoulder (40) machined into the connector shell (12) with the intervening space (52) being filled with a cured mass of epoxy (42) to secure the resinous insert (38) in position.
