Production of optical fiber connector plug

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To obtain an optical fiber connector plug inexpensively with a high productivity, by forming a plastic molded material provided with the through hole having specific size and length for the outside diameter of the optical fiber strand and by inserting and fixing the strand into this hole. CONSTITUTION:In case that plug main body 8 is molded with plastic, through hole 7 is provided which has a diameter larger than the outside diameter of optical fiber strand 14 used for the plug terminal and smaller than the sum of the diameter of the strand the 1/4 of the core diameter of the strand and has a length 10 or more times as long as the difference between the diameter and the outside diameter of the strand. Next, optical fiber strand 14 is inserted into this through hole 7 and is fixed by an adhesive.
