An optical ferrule is disclosed in which a concave portion having a gate in resin molding disposed therein is formed in a ferrule body. According to this constitution, it is possible to easily cut a flash left after a gate of the concave portion o f the ferrule body is cut after molding with a gate cutter, so that, when the ferrule body is fitted in a housing of an MPO connector and the like, the problem that the flash protrud es from the concave portion and the flash hitching to an inner wall of the housing does not occur. Accordingly, the labor required for removing the flash by polishing can be eliminated, and hence productivity of the ferrule body can be improved. Thus, a large number of ferrule bodies can be automatically manufactured without requiring much manpower.
