The cable, of twisted plastics strands, has anchor elements (13) twisted into the outermost twisted strand layers (11), bonded to the outer mantle (14). The anchor elements (13) and/or the outer mantle (14) are of materials which can be welded or vulcanized. The anchor element is at least one anchor strand (13) in at least one outer strand layer (11) with carrier strands (9). Or it is an anchor fiber twisted with the carrier strands at the outermost twisted strand layer. An Independent claim is included for a cable manufacturing process where the anchor element (13) is twisted in place so that, when the outer mantle (14) is fitted, a mol. bond is formed between them. Preferred Features: The anchor strand (13) is heated to its melting temp. before the mantle (14) is extruded over the twisted cable so that it is welded to the anchor. The anchors (13) are treated chemically before the mantle shrouding is in place, for the mantle and anchors to be vulcanized together. |
