Abstract
A sealing mechanism for a connector and a method of producing a connector wherein undesirable invasion of water and oil from terminals in an earth connector, an engine connector or the like can reliably be prevented. A sealing mechanism for a connector is constructed such that a plurality of transversely extending grooves are formed on the opposite surfaces of an embedding portion of a terminal extending outside of a wall portion of a connector housing 1, and the connector housing and the terminal are molded integral with each other in the presence of a sealable coating agent applied to the embedding portion. A method of producing a connector is practiced by way of the steps of applying a sealable coating agent to an embedding portion of a terminal extending from a connector housing, and Subsequently, molding the connector housing integral with the terminal in the presence of the sealable coating agent applied to the embedding portion.
