An annular sealing member is a ring-like article molded from relatively incompressible elastomeric material and having an axially extending body section with at least one and preferably two annular ribs extending radially outwardly from the body section. Such a sealing member is seated in an annular groove around a plug section of a cylindrical connector housing tightly thereagainst. When the plug section is axially inserted into a hood section of a mating connector housing, the annular ribs are engaged by the inner surface of the hood section, are deformably bent over thereby, and transmit radially inward compressive force to deform the sealing member body section sealingly against the plug section, and thus form an annular sealing engagement between the housings. A plurality of ribs provides for plural sealing areas, or redundant sealing.
