Abstract: A fuel injector is configured such that a non-magnetic member constituting a magnetic circuit is deformed by an axial force generated when the non-magnetic member is combined with a cover and a housing, thereby providing airtight contact. The fuel injector is a device that injects fuel into an engine by raising a needle. A magnetic field generated from a coil forms a magnetic circuit when the coil is magnetized, and the magnetic circuit raises the needle. The fuel injector includes a block ring disposed inside the coil, a cover disposed at an upper end of the block ring, and a housing disposed at a lower end of the block ring. The block ring is made of a non-magnetic material and configured to extend the magnetic circuit. When the cover and the housing are combined by being screwed together, the upper end and the lower end of the block ring are deformed to provide airtight contact with respect to the cover and the housing, respectively.
