Abstract: A protector includes a bottom plate, a pair of side walls, and an inner space in which a plurality of routing members are routed. One of the side walls has first and second through-holes into which a binding member that fastens a routing member bundle to the one side wall is inserted. The first through-hole is continuously formed with a bottom surface of the bottom plate, close to the inner space. The second through-hole is formed to be spaced apart from the first through-hole in a standing direction. When seen in a run-through direction of the first through-hole, the bottom plate includes a pair of protruding portions that are spaced apart in an extending direction with the first through-hole interposed therebetween. The pair of protruding portions are formed, on the bottom surface, close to the one side wall in the run-through direction.
