Abstract
A striker used in a lock device of a vehicle door has a U-shaped rod provided with an outside leg, an inside leg extending in parallel with the outside leg, and a connecting portion joining the ends of both legs. In order to strengthen the striker, the sectional area of the inside leg is larger than the outside leg, and the connecting portion has a wedge shape the thick portion thereof being placed at the inside portion. Thus, strength of the connecting portion to the inside leg is made larger than that of another connecting portion to the outside leg.
