Description
Ordered by the metre and supplied as a single continuous run rather than a bundle of short pieces, this is a slim clear flex with three cores. The transparent sheath keeps a hanging drop looking light, so the cable reads as part of the fitting rather than something to hide. It measures 6mm across, stays pliable in the hand, and is VDE approved. Being a flexible cord, it coils and hangs without fighting you. We treat it as our standard clear flex for anything needing an earth.
It suits pendants, rise and fall fittings, floor and table lamps, and metal fittings that need an earth core. Makers and small workshops buy it for bespoke builds, and we sell plenty to people rewiring a much loved lamp that has outlived its old flex. It is also handy to have in the drawer when a shade is changed and the old cord turns out too short for the new drop. Because it is clear rather than coloured, it sits quietly against pale walls and ceilings and works alongside brass, chrome or painted fittings. Keep it to dry rooms indoors on a household lighting circuit.
The conductor size, at 0.5mm per core, is the usual choice for lighting loads rather than heavy appliances. Clear is the quiet option: the sheath takes on the colour of whatever sits behind it. Care is simple: store any leftover length loosely coiled so the clear jacket does not take a kink, and run a dry cloth along it if it has gathered dust. It carries a one year warranty. The wider range runs to clear cable in heavier sizes, plain black, and braided cable in white, black, red, blue, purple and lime green if you would rather the flex showed.

Frequently Asked
If I order more than one metre, do I get separate metre lengths?
No. The quantity you order is supplied as one continuous length, so a five metre order arrives as a single uncut run.
What are the cable dimensions?
The outer diameter is 6.0mm, and there are three cores at 0.5mm each.
Is it suitable for a bathroom or an outdoor fitting?
No. It is rated IP20, so keep it to dry indoor rooms.
Does it include an earth?
Yes. With three cores it can carry live, neutral and earth, which is what earthed metal fittings need.
How should I store the offcuts?
Coil them loosely and keep them out of direct sunlight. Tight bends held for a long time can leave a permanent kink in the clear sheath.
Is there a warranty?
It carries a one year warranty.
