A dual molded seal electrical connector having deformable seals adhering to relatively rigid body portions establishes sealing integrity for individual pin and socket terminals joining corresponding conductors. An interface seal surrounds a cavity containing one terminal and receives a cylindrical protuberance on the other connector housing. The seal is deflected radially outward upon engaging a conical surface on the protuberance. The connector bodies comprise one-piece molded members formed sequentially of different materials in the same mold.

A detachable sealed electrical connector for use in establishing a sealed interconnection between conductors in one or more circuits comprising: first and second matable connector housings, the first housing comprising a unitary molded member having a relatively rigid portion and a relatively deformable sealing portion extending from an end of the rigid portion on a mating face of the first housing: at least one relatively rigid protuberance on a mating end of the second housing, a bore in the second housing extending through the protuberance; at least one cavity extending through the first connector housing, a first portion of the cavity extending through the relatively rigid portion only a second portion of the cavity extending through the relatively deformable sealing portion only and comprising means for receiving a corresponding protuberance; and matable electrical terminals in corresponding bores and cavities, whereby the relatively flexible sealing portion is outwardly deflectable to establish sealing integrity around a corresponding protuberance when the first and second connector housings are mated.
