Abstract
A method of manufacturing a needle-equipped outer tube includes a preheating step comprising heating a distal end connecting section to a temperature at or below a softening point of a material forming an outer tube member with a joint member inserted in a distal end connecting section of the outer tube member, and with a needle being inserted or inserted and fixed in the needle insertion hole; and a joint member welding step, performed after the preheating step, comprising thermally welding the joint member to the distal end connecting section of the outer tube member with a distal end portion of the joint member pressed toward the proximal end of the joint member by a pushing member with a pressing force in a range of 4 N to 30 N.
