I found it quite tight. 10mm 3core SWA has an o/d of 19mm approx, best advise is to order a pair of both 20mm and 25mm, at the price you can get them for on Amazon, then you decide which is is easier for you. Don't forget to fit everything onto the cable (shroud, nut, ring, etc) before fitting cables through gland body. **Q: what is the overall diameter please? thanks** A: The dia of the cable is 15.5mm **Q: can this be chewed through** A: I’m sure a rat could chew through it but ours is buried underground **Q: Is this cable suitable for driving on overground** A: No cable is designed for driving over. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/177246791-alis-diy-3-core-6-mm-swa-steel-wire-armoured](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/177246791-alis-diy-3-core-6-mm-swa-steel-wire-armoured) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-10-09*
