[Objective]The present invention provides a low-cost striker, the rod-like portion of which having a predetermined amount of thickness and a round shape such as a round shape in cross section, via a simple manufacturing operation with no substantial increase in weight of the striker. [Means for Solving the Problem]A striker for locking two members with each other with each other by engagement of the striker with a groove of a hook, wherein the striker is fixed to one of the two members and the hook is rotatably fixed to the other of the two members, the striker including a mounting plate portion fixed to the one of the two members; a base plate portion which is formed so as to extend perpendicular to the mounting plate portion by a bending process along a bend line; and a folded-back plate portion which is formed by folding over an extended portion, extending from one end of the base plate portion in a direction of the bend line, onto the opposite side of the base plate portion from the mounting plate portion side, so that the extended portion overlies the base plate portion. The base plate portion is positioned closer to the hook than the folded-back plate portion. A through-hole is formed in the base plate portion and the folded-back plate portion, which overlie each other, so that a folded end portion between the base plate portion and the folded-back plate portion defines a rod-like portion serving as an engaging portion engageable with a groove of the hook. A first portion of a cross section of the rod-like portion, at the folded end portion, which is taken along a plane orthogonal to the direction of the length of the rod-like portion is greater in length than a second portion of the cross section of the rod-like portion, the first portion and the second portion being provided on the base plate portion and the folded-back plate portion, respectively.
