Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a multilayered heat-recoverable article in which an adhesive layer easily flows during heat shrinkage to ensure adhesiveness with an adherend and does not flow out from a base material layer after heat shrinkage, and a wire splice and a wire harness that include a tube formed by thermally shrinking such a multilayered heat-recoverable article. The multilayered heat-recoverable article () according to the present invention includes a cylindrical base material layer (), and an adhesive layer () formed on an inner circumferential surface of the base material layer. The adhesive layer () is formed of a resin composition that contains a polyamide as a main component and that does not substantially contain an inorganic filler. The resin composition is cross-linked by irradiation with ionizing radiation. A shear viscosity of the adhesive layer () at 150° C. is 300 Pa·s or more at a shear rate of 0.01 sand 200 Pa·s or less at a shear rate of 100 s. The wire splice and the wire harness according to the present invention includes a tube formed by thermally shrinking the multilayered heat-recoverable article ().
