{"product_id":"cavo-twisted-cable-5-3mm-dia-1m-drop-dark-brown","title":"Cavo Twisted Cable 5.3mm Dia 1m Drop - Dark Brown","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eDark brown braid woven over a twisted two core flex, sold by the metre and supplied as a single continuous run whatever length you order. The twist gives it a soft rope-like line instead of the flat anonymity of moulded PVC, and the braid picks up light rather than bouncing it back, so it reads as a deep, warm brown that settles into shadow. The conductors are 0.75mm, the size most domestic pendants and lamps are wired in, and the cable is VDE approved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt suits anything where the flex is on show: a pendant hung over a kitchen island, a cluster of bare bulbholders above a dining table, a rewired floor lamp, a bedside light on a hook. Brown sits well against oak, walnut, leather and old brick, and it is quieter than black in a pale room. We keep it on the shelf for customers restoring older lamps, where a bright white flex would look wrong against aged brass. It is for dry rooms indoors, not garden runs or damp bathroom corners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe braided sleeve is tightly woven over the insulated cores, and the twist holds its shape, so it hangs in a gentle spiral rather than kinking. Dust wipes off with a dry cloth run down the length with the power off; the weave will hold a little grease in a kitchen, so a barely damp cloth and a dry one after keeps it looking fresh. It carries a one year warranty. Braided flex in this range is also stocked in black, white, red, blue, purple and lime green, and there are plain clear and black options if you would rather the cable disappeared.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDark Brown\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.10KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1000mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.3mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFabric, Copper, PVC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy Class\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot Applicable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Voltage (V)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e220-240V~50\/60Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1yr\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUKCA\/CE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 Core 0.75mm Braided Twisted.
