We developed these cords because we found
it impossible to find the right quality of replacement cords for our own
restoration work. The vast majority of original cords are now in a pretty poor
state and have degenerated both aesthetically and electrically to a point where
they are no longer serviceable. Our cords are designed to fit standard British
200 and 300 series telephones, but because we make every cord by hand a large
degree of customisation is possible.
What
makes these cords so good ?
Flexibility : The flexibility of original cords was
achieved using a tinsel wire and a cotton insulator. These cords also use a
tinsel core with a very soft and flexible polymer coating which ensures a high
level of electrical insulation exceeding that of the original cords. This is
not an 'off the shelf' wire and is manufactured specifically and exclusively to
our specification.
Size : The cores are manufactured to tight
tolerances to accurately reproduce the diameter of an original cord. All cores
have strain relief fibres running through them to give a high tensile strength.
Finish : The cores are braided with custom dyed
pure Egyptian cotton supplied by a top UK manufacturer. The finish is matt and
soft to the touch.
Anchor : Importantly, these cords use the same
securing methods as the original cords.
Termination : The ring terminals
are chosen to match the size of machine screw used. Hence, they are covered by
the screw head so as to retain the original appearance. If you would prefer a
different termination, please contact me to discuss other options available.
