A tubing connector seals an end portion of a tubing that serves as a conduit for fluids. An elastic seal ring is provided in each of two annular grooves in an external periphery of a connector portion of the tubing connector. Each groove has a depth that approximates a thickness of the seal ring and a width greater than a width of the seal ring. When the connector portion is inserted in the tubing and a radial pressure is exerted on the tubing by a crimp ring, the plastic inner periphery of the tubing intrudes into each annular groove and further compresses the seal ring inwardly in the groove. The remainder of the tubing overlapped by the crimp ring is compressed tightly around the external periphery of the connector portion to form a fluid-tight seal.
