Further, the inner pressure of the outer layer mold is set to 300 kgf /
Since the pressure is not less than cm 2 and not more than 1000 kgf / cm 2 , a strong pressure is applied to the outer surface of the inner layer, and the delamination strength is improved. Therefore, peeling between the layers can be prevented, and the quality can be improved.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the injection resin temperature is set to 230 to 270 ° C., this high injection resin temperature improves the delamination strength between the inner layer and the outer layer injected onto the outer surface of the inner layer. Therefore, peeling between the layers can be prevented, and the quality can be improved.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, since the depth of the groove is 0.5 to 2 times the diameter of the heating wire, the heating wire can be wound without coming off the groove. Therefore, winding can be performed stably at a predetermined position with good productivity, and since it is hard to come off from the groove, short-circuiting of the heating wire can be prevented. Therefore, a stable temperature of the fusion-bonded joint can be obtained even when the electric current is supplied, and the temperature becomes a predetermined temperature and the re-fusion can be reliably performed.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the thermoplastic resin for the outer layer is injected at a high molding die pressure and at a predetermined injection resin temperature onto the outer surface of the inner layer around which the heating wire is wound without coming off the groove. Therefore, an electro-fusion joint in which the layers are sufficiently fused can be formed. Therefore, even if re-fusing is performed by heating the heating wire, there is no separation, and the quality can be stabilized.
