This kink prevention jig is provided with an outwardly extended section above the laminated wire and that extends in the radial direction of the outer tube part, and a wire abutment section above the outwardly extended section and which abuts on a welding wire W and thereby prevents kinks when the welding wire W is pulled out from the extraction hole.
