Abstract

An object is to make it possible to hot-press a nonwoven member that covers a branching portion of a wire harness main body even when there is an error in the position of the branching portion. A wire harness includes a wire harness main body and a branching portion protection portion. The wire harness main body includes a trunk line portion and a branch line portion branching off from the trunk line portion. The branching portion protection portion is formed by hot-pressing a nonwoven member in a state in which the nonwoven member covers the branching portion where the branch line portion branches off from the trunk line portion. The branching portion protection portion includes a branch line side protection portion that is tapered from a base end side toward a distal end side of the branch line portion.
