Abstract
A seal construction of a polymer insulator has a core member, an outer cover member including a sheath portion and sheds, which is arranged on an outer surface of the core member, and a securing metal fitting is arranged on each end of the core member. A tip portion of the sheath portion is arranged between the securing metal-fitting and the core member, and a sealant is arranged between an inner surface of the securing metal fitting and an outer surface of the tip portion of the sheath portion. The seal construction mentioned above includes a small rib projecting radially outward from the sheath portion of the outer cover member. The small rib has a side surface connected to an open end portion of the securing metal fitting via the sealant, and the sealant does not protrude from a portion between the side surface of the small rib and the open end portion of the securing metal fitting.
