Description
Overview:
The Black Rubber Flexible Cable 2.5mm 3-core (10 Metre) is a heavy-duty, multi-purpose electrical flex for temporary or permanent connections in home, garden, workshop, and site environments. It uses a tough rubber outer sheath for protection and flexibility, with three insulated conductors inside to carry live, neutral, and earth. The round, black cable is easy to route through glands and enclosures and copes well with frequent handling. Supplied in a 10 metre length (32.8 feet), it suits building-site tools, portable machinery, generators, pressure washers, and garden equipment. The 2.5 mm size is commonly understood as 2.5 mm2 cross-sectional area per core, suited to higher-demand single-phase applications compared with lighter flex sizes. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 124 0142.
