Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a heat-recoverable article that thermally shrinks in a suitable temperature range and that does not easily split, and a wire splice and a wire harness that use the heat-recoverable article. The heat-recoverable article according to the present invention is a cylindrical, heat-recoverable article including a base layer. The base layer contains two or more polyolefin-based resins and a flame retardant, the base layer has a single melting-point peak temperature, the melting-point peak temperature is 112° C. or more and 128° C. or less, and a heat of fusion of the base layer is 60 J/g or more and 85 J/g or less. A heat of fusion of a total resin component of the base layer is preferably 80 J/g or more and 135 J/g or less.
