The resin tube 3 may be any tube made of non-magnetic material, and may also be a tube made of austenitic stainless steel or non-ferrous metal. The magnetic core material 1 is composed of dozens or more amorphous wires 11 arranged in parallel in the axial direction inside the resin tube 3. Each amorphous wire 11 is approximately 0.1 mm
