An end connector (19) for a ceiling grid runner (11) that interlocks with an identical connector when assembled in a common slot (18) of a through runner. Problems associated with interference between a lock lance (41) stamped laterally out of the plane of the connector and the opposing connector when the second connector is being inserted in the slot (18) are reduced by a relief zone (60) in the forward portion of the connector that is in the form of a concave area that clears the opposing lock lance until the second connector is nearly fully received in the slot (18).
