Highly bendable insulated electric wire
A highly bendable insulated electric wire including: a conducting wire formed by stranding a plurality of metal strands; and an insulator covering the conducting wire, in which a twist pitch ratio of the conducting wire (a twist pitch/an outer diameter of the conducting wire) is 10.8 or less, the insulator is made of a resin composition containing a vinyl chloride resin and having an elongation rate of 130% or higher at −40° C., and an adhesion strength between the conducting wire and the insulator is 20 N or less.
1. A highly bendable insulated electric wire comprising:
a conducting wire formed by stranding a plurality of metal strands; and
an insulator covering the conducting wire,
wherein a twist pitch ratio of the conducting wire (a twist pitch/an outer diameter of the conducting wire) is 10.8 or less,
the insulator is made of a resin composition containing a vinyl chloride resin and having an elongation rate of 130% or higher at −40° C., and
an adhesion strength between the conducting wire and the insulator is 20 N or less.
2. A wire harness comprising the highly bendable insulated electric wire according to claim 1 .
3. The electric wire of claim 1 , wherein the resin composition comprises a plasticizer penetrated between molecules of the vinyl chloride resin and at 35 to 55 parts by mass of 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin.
