The present disclosure provides a braided twine (100) that includes a twine core (102), a braided sheath (106) configured around the twine core (102), and an intermediate film (104) configured between the twine core (102) and braided sheath (106) to bridge a gap between the twine core (102) and the braided sheath (106).

A production method for a headline sonar cable characterized by steps of: a. providing a first strength member (14); b. coupling to strength member (14) a conductor (122); c. forming a layer of polymeric material about the combination of strength member (14) and conductor (122) while ensuring that the conductor remains slack; d. forming a flow shield around the layer of polymeric material, thus forming an elongatable internally located conductive structure; and e. braiding a strength-member jacket layer (52) of polymeric material around the elongatable internally located conductive structure while ensuring that the conductor is slack when surrounded by the jacket layer (52). For another embodiment, an optical fibre is wrapped around the exterior of the layer of polymeric material within which is enclosed a braided conductor formed about the first strength member (14). Other embodiments employ further thermo-plastic layers and further sheaths and further conductors.

Provided is a cable including a stranded member floating-preventing element that can be easily peeled off.

A power transmission line core includes one core member and six side members twisted around the core member, each member obtained by impregnating a fiber bundle including a plurality of carbon fibers that are continuous in the longitudinal direction and bundled into the fiber bundle with a resin and curing the resin. A tow including a plurality of tow fibers that are continuous in the longitudinal direction and arranged flatly and densely is spirally wound around the surface of the power transmission line core in the direction opposite to the twisting direction of the side members. The tow is detachably entangled in the unevenness on the surface of the power transmission line core.

Provided is an elastomer reinforcement cord with improved rust inhibition. An elastomer reinforcement cord (10) includes metal filaments and a polymer material. The elastomer reinforcement cord (10) has a multi-strand structure which includes: at least one core strand (21) formed by twisting plural metal filaments (1a) and (1b) together; and two or more sheath strands (22) each formed by twisting plural metal filaments (11a) and (11b) together, and in which the sheath strands are twisted together around the core strand. In a region surrounded by a line connecting the centers of the metal filaments constituting the outermost sheath layer of the core strand at a cross-section in a direction orthogonal to an axial direction after vulcanization of the core strand, when a region occupied by other than the metal filaments is defined as a gap region, a filling rate, which is a ratio of the area of the polymer material with respect to the gap region, is 52% to 120%.
