Abstract

A weather strip including a trim part U-shaped in section, a hollow seal part joined to the trim part, and a core member made up of a plurality of U-shaped core pieces embeded in the trim part to the extent that the weather strip is not impaired in flexibility. Wires are embeded in the weather strip in such a manner that they are located near the joint and extend in the weather strip longitudinally. Hence, the weather strip can be engaged with a flange of a vehicle that varies three-dimensionally in posture and in direction.
