A lead connector for an implantable medical device includes a cylindrical connector body having a proximal end and a distal end. A distal frame forms the distal end and a remainder of the connecter body is a mold material. A plurality of shafts extending through the distal frame from a rear face to a front face, the rear face abutting the mold material forming the remainder of the connector body. A plurality of ring contacts are in the connector body. A plurality of wires are coupled to a ring contact and extend through the mold material and through a corresponding one of the shafts. The mold material forming the remainder of the connector body extends partially into each shaft and about the corresponding conductive wire to form a plug.
