(54)	Cable and method of production thereof

(57) A cable (10), including a shell (22) comprising a tube-shaped tape (24) of a material selected from a group of materials consisting of cellulose, synthetic resin or a combination thereof, a sheath (20) of synthetic resin enclosing the shell, and a cable body (12) inside the shell. According to the invention, the shell (22) has a resilience capable of yieldably resisting a compressive force from the sheath (20) when the sheath is shrinking during forming thereof, to thereby maintain a predetermined clearance (p2) to the cable body (12) and/or a resulting roundness of the sheath once the sheath has been hardened.
