ABSTRACT:
An individually armored fiber optic core assembly having a diameter less than about 0.050" is provided as well as a process for making same. A fiber optic core comprising a fiber optic element and a surrounding protective layer is encased within a drawn metal sheath having a generally longitudinally extending seam. The ratio of the outside diameter of the fiber optic core to the inside diameter of the metal sheath is at least about 0.6:1.
