A cable designed for use in applications when it is advantageous to reduce the amount of aerodynamic drag in air caused by the cable without the cable being formed from a multiplicity of a plurality of elongated metal elements twisted together, one of said outer elements having a cross-section which is different to all other outer elements, said all other outer elements defining an outer surface of the line which has a predetermined circumferential length, said one element having a cross-sectional size and shape such that it projects or indents from said outer surface a distance above or below said predetermined circumferential length so as to form a helical ridge or grove around the line, thereby reducing the aerodynamic drag of the cable in air.
