PURPOSE:To obtain a ferrule for multi-core optical connector which can be produced in a comparatively easy way with high precision, by forming a hollow part to the ferrule main body and a member which is fitted to the hollow part. CONSTITUTION:For the ferrule main body 11, a hollow part 11a of a regular triangle section is formed at the center tip part of a columnar member, and a positioning and holding member 12 of an optical fiber has such a form that is obtained by cutting the top point areas of a triangular column having the same form and size as the part 11a on the basis of the surface parallel to the center axis of the triangular column. The triangular member 12 is fitted to the part 11a, and then an optical fiber which is connected to a gap formed at a part 12a where the member 12 is cut off is inserted and adhered. Thus a ferrule is obtained. |
