A pipe connector for connecting a first pipe and a second pipe includes a
socket attached to an end of the first pipe and a plug attached to an end
of the second pipe, wherein the plug is inserted into the socket. An
inner periphery of the socket is provided with a seal ring for sealing an
interval between the inner periphery of the socket and an outer periphery
of the plug in an airtight manner and a hold ring for restricting
movement of the seal ring in an axial direction. The hold ring includes a
groove in a ring-like shape for constituting a burr storing space at an
outer periphery thereof and is welded to the inner periphery of the
socket by ultrasonic welding.
