Waterproofing arrangement for wire harness

摘要

A sealant is applied to electric wires which comprise a wire harness at a location where a portion of this wire harness passes through a narrow diameter cylindrical member 6a of a grommet 6. An outer circumference of this portion to which the sealant has been applied is covered by a sheet 11. Both open ends along a length-wise direction of this sheet are bound by tape 13 and 14, the bound portions of this tape preventing the sealant from escaping to the exterior. In the portion between the tapes, the sealant is forced to permeate into the cross-sectionally central portion of the wire harness. The tapes 13, 14 also act as a positioning aid.
