During use there is a risk that a male connector for a guide wire is bent.
With the present male connector (1) more material with high modulus of elasticity
can be provided inside the male connector (1), which makes the male connector
(1) more bending resistant. The male connector (1) comprises a core
wire (3), a plurality of conductive members (4) spaced apart longitudinally
along said core wire (3), a plurality of conductors (5) disposed
along the core wire (3), each of the conductors (5) being connected
to a respective conductive member (4). The core wire (3) has such
a shape that least one longitudinal cavity is provided, which longitudinal cavity
remains substantially intact when the male connector (1) is bent, thereby
protecting the conductors (5), which are disposed in said cavity, from being damaged.
