[QUOTE="OnOff, post: 332941, member: 16173"] Looking into alternatives for a drop cable from a roof top crane to a man riding basket. Comes off a powered, spring tensioned reel at the top. Existing stuff is 9-cores x 0.26mm sq, black pvc sheath with an integral steel wire strainer about 7/8mm dia. Needs to be flexible, strong and good at external temperatures. Comes (came) from Italy via Eland in the UK. Last batch made in 1996. I can get more made if I take 1000m of it. Someone mentioned using "multicore co-ax" i.e. with a braided shield for strength to take the place of the steel wire strainer. Any suggestions? Thanks [/QUOTE]
