Plug and method for manufacturing plug

A plug electrically connected to a coaxial cable, comprising:

• a conductive terminal member having a cylindrical connecting section electrically connected to an inner conductor of the coaxial cable;
• an insulating holder externally fitted to the terminal member in such a manner as to be coaxial with an axis of the connecting section of the terminal member;
• a conductive shell electrically connected to an outer conductor of the coaxial cable and externally fitted to the holder in such a manner as to be coaxial with the axis;
• and
• a conductive grounding member disposed between the shell and the holder,
• the shell including
• a cylindrical inner surface on which the connecting section and the holder are disposed on an inner side coaxially with the axis;
• and
• a protrusion protruding radially inward from part of the cylindrical inner surface,
• the grounding member including
• a pair of circular arc-shaped supports electrically connected to the shell by coming in contact with the cylindrical inner surface;
• and
• an elastically deformable contact supported by the pair of supports,
• at least one of the two supports including a recess formed in a different place from where the contact is disposed, and
• the grounding member being fixed to the shell by the protrusion fitting into the recess.
