Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a tank connector with reduced protruding amount to the outside a fuel tank. SOLUTION: A tank connector 20 is equipped with a connector main body 30, and a wire harness 50 disposed outside a fuel tank. By calking an outer peripheral pawl portion 32a, a falling-out of a resin member 35 outside the fuel tank is prevented, and by engaging the resin member 35 with an annular portion 33 the falling-off of the resin member 35 inside the fuel tank is prevented. The resin member 35 is molded integrally with resin, and a terminal 38 is insert molded. By crushing and crimping the crimp portions the tips of the wire harness 50 and the terminal 38 are connected electrically. The terminal 38 is folded in the vicinity of the resin member 35. Since the protruding amount of a calked portion of the terminal 38 and the wire harness 50 protruding outside the fuel tank are little, the connector main body fitted fuel tank can be installed with a small installation space.
