A stator core for a rotary electric machine is provided. The stator includes an annular stator core having a plurality of slots punched and arranged in the circumferential direction, being straight in the axial direction, and a stator winding consisting of wire members. The wire members have respective straight portions accommodated in respective slots. Each of the wire members has a conductor portion having a rectangular cross section and an insulating coating covering the conductor portion. An adhesive member is provided between each of the straight portions and the wall surface of each slot. In each slot, the adhesive member adheres the straight portions to the wall surface. Thus, the stator core can maintain the space factor of the wire members accommodated in each slot and suppress vibration of the wire members during the operation of the rotary electric machine to reliably reduce generation of peculiar noise or magnetic noise.
