The invention provides a dowel connector which comprises a tubular body of resilient material having a longitudinal slot in the wall of the body, the slot extending the entire length of the body, and the opposed faces of the slot being spaced apart. When the dowel is compressed to bring the opposed faces of the slot together, for example by urging the dowel into a bore of smaller diameter, the dowel is placed in tension tending to separate the opposed faces. The invention also envisages the provision of a rod member which is receivable in the bore of the body in its unstressed state. In one arrangement the rod member may be integral with the tubular body.
