Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a wire harness that can easily bend along a routing path. A wire harness () comprises: two electric wires () each having a core wire () and an insulating coating part () that coats the outer periphery of the core wire (); and a joining part () that joins the coating parts () with each other in a condition in which the two electric wires () are parallel. The joining part () joins with each other the portions of the coating parts () of the two electric wires () that cover end parts in the width direction of the core wires (), and is configured so as to be capable of bending deformation between a first attitude in which the core wires () of the two electric wires are parallel in the mutual width direction thereof, and a second attitude in which the core wires () of the two electric wires () are parallel in the mutual thickness direction thereof. The wire harness () has a first bending part in which the two electric wires () are bent in the thickness direction in the first attitude, and a second bending part in which the two electric wires () are bent in the thickness direction in the second attitude.
