Description
Twisted flex, with a woven white braid over each of the two cores and the pair wound together into a neat rope. The braid gives it a softer, more textile look than smooth PVC, and the twist holds its shape so the cable sits tidily where it can be seen. At 6mm across it stays slim and easy to handle. We sell it by the metre, and however many metres you order it comes to you as a single continuous run rather than separate pieces. It is VDE approved.
This is the cable to choose when the flex is part of the look: a pendant on a long drop, a cluster over a dining table, or a rewire of a table or floor lamp whose old flex has yellowed. White suits pale ceilings and painted walls, where a dark cable would draw the eye. It is one we reach for in kitchens and hallways, and in workshops and studios where fittings are made up to order. Keep it to dry indoor rooms, away from bathroom zones and damp outbuildings.
Each conductor is insulated and sleeved, then the two are twisted together, so the braid is what you see and what you handle; the white runs right through the weave. Keep it clean with a dry cloth drawn along the braid, since a woven finish holds dust more readily than a plain sheath, and do that with the power off and the lamp unplugged. Elsewhere in the range we stock braided cable in black, red, blue, purple and lime green, along with plain black PVC, clear flat cable and a slimmer cable for wiring LED items. Lamp holders and plugs are bought separately.

Frequently Asked
What size are the conductors?
It is a two core cable at 0.75mm per core, with an overall braided diameter of 6mm.
If I order several metres, do they arrive as separate pieces?
No. The quantity you order is supplied as one continuous length, so a 3m order comes as a single 3m run.
How is it different from the plain braided cable in the range?
This version has the two braided cores twisted together into a rope; the plain braided cable is a single round sheathed flex.
How do I clean the braid?
Switch off at the socket or isolate the circuit first, then run a dry cloth along the braid. Avoid sprays and damp cloths, which can mark a woven finish.
Can I use it outdoors or in a bathroom?
No. It is intended for dry indoor use only.
Is it approved for use in the UK?
Yes, it is VDE approved and rated for use on a domestic mains voltage of 230V.
