In the manufacture of a cable having a plurality of filamentary members (8) such as wires, optical fibres or the like within an extruded thermoplastic sheath (11.1), the members (8) are twisted into a periodically reversing helical configuration immediately prior to the extrusion of the sheath (11.1) around them. The extruded sheath (11.1) is rapidly cooled on emergence from the extruder head (1) so as to cause the extrudate (11) to set and thereby retain the members (8) in the twisted condition. |
