Abstract
A waterproof wire connector has a tubular cap and a tubular shoe which is telescopically received in the cap. An electrical connection is made between the contacting ends of a plurality of electrical wires extending through the shoe and hooked in a slot provided at the forward end of the shoe. As the shoe is inserted into the cap, a sealant in the cap is hydraulically injected around the stripped ends of the wires electrically insulating and protecting them from oxidation.
