A connector housing (14) has terminal accommodation chambers (13) in which terminals (12) connected to ends of electric wires (11) are accommodated. A soft sealing material (17) has terminal passing holes (15) through which the terminals (12) and the wires (11) are let to pass, and is assembled to a rear end portion (16) of the housing (14), from which the wires are let out and at which the soft sealing material (17) tight contacts on an inner wall (14a) of the housing (14) and outer circumferences of the wires (11), thereby sealing the terminal accommodation chambers (13). A pressing member (19) is inserted in the housing (14) to expand diameters of the terminal passing holes (15) of the soft sealing material (17) to diameters that allow the terminals (12) to pass through the terminal passing holes (15) without injuring inner walls (15a). of the terminal passing holes (15), and moved towards the terminal accommodation chambers (13) to press the soft sealing material (17) and to bring the soft sealing material (17) into tight contact with the inner wall (14a) of the housing (14) and outer circumferences of the wires (11).
