Summary:PURPOSE:To obtain an optical connector ferrule which is capable of exact alignment, by forming a fine hole for making an optical fiber pass through so that its center line is inclined against the center axis of a ferrule, and supporting the optical fiber by 2 different points. CONSTITUTION:An optical fiber 1 to be connected to a ferrule 3 is inserted, this optical fiber 1 is made to contact with 2 points of a point A and a point B of a fine hole 3a of the ferrule 3, and after that, it is fixed by injecting an adhesive agent into a gap between the optical fiber 1 and the fine hole 3a. In this ferrule, when positions of the point A and the point B are set in advance so that the center line of the optical fiber completely coincides with the axis of the ferrule when the optical fiber contacts with these 2 points, the optical fiber which is adhered and fixed to the ferrule is fixed exactly.
