A coupling for a connector for fluid pipes includes a female base in which a male end-piece is inserted to produce a sealed connection. An elastically deformable C-shaped metal wire spring immobilizes the end-piece in the base. A locking sleeve is movable axially around the spring and the base between a first axial position in which the spring can deform radially towards the outside of the base, and a second axial position prohibiting the radial deformation of the spring. The sleeve has at least one radial interior recess into which the spring retracts when deformed by the end-piece in the first position. Each recess is offset axially with respect to the spring in the second position, preventing the radial deformation of the spring and thereby safeguarding the sealed connection. |
