A connector having a housing made from a polyamide resin composition comprising (A) 65-85 wt.% of a specified aromatic polyamide, (B) 5-20 wt.% of a grafted α-olefin random copolymer and/or a grafted aromatic vinyl hydrocarbon/conjugated diene copolymer, or a hydrogenated derivative thereof, (C) 0.1-1.0 wt.% of polyethylene wax or a metal salt of a C₂₆-C₃₂ aliphatic carboxylic acid based on 100 wt.% of the sum total of the components (A) and (B), and if necessary (D) an antioxidant. The invention aims at providing a connector which does not undergo thermal deterioration of the properties such as toughness and is especially excellent in formability and lightweight. |
