[Problem to be Solved]To provide a catheter that can efficiently transmit a pressing force, which is applied by an operator, to the front end of the catheter without being broken at a midpoint of the catheter.[Solution]In a catheter 10, an upper second wall 84 of a metal tube 80 is not provided, a lower first wall 82 is bent to the second wall 84, and the rear end 70 of the reinforcing member is joined to the outer peripheral surface of the curved first wall 82. Thus, the reinforcing member 70 increased in diameter at least by a thickness X2 of the second wall 84 can be disposed in the catheter 10 without increasing the diameter of an outer tube 30.
