Mobiron/Mobilon-wrapped cable
Explanation:
My first guess was Mobiron/Mobilon filament, but Katalin's link to Nisshinbo told me that the stuff is more for tapes, sheets, and coatings.

Aaaaargh! Mobilon is the name of a Sharp product.

Google has only six hits for Mobiron. None from Nisshinbo, but one <http://www.kyouden.co.jp/sub13/mobiron.htm> on モビロンタフケーブル with some nice wrapping diagrams. There¥'s also <;www.yoshinogawa.co.jp/mobiron/indexmob.html>.

Note, however, that the ¥"mobiron¥" appears only in the URLs, so is not to be taken as definitive.

Don¥'t let the Sharp ¥"noise¥" throw you off. It¥'s Mobilon--straight from the horse¥'s mouth.

The page concentrates exclusively on textile applications, however, so the 線 part still requires more context.

disagree  Katalin Horváth McClure: mobilon is the right spelling. "mobiron" is the incorrect romanization from the Japanese pronunciation. Pages that come up for search on "mobiron" are all Japanese pages with this wrong romanization. Try searching on mobion fibre or mobilon elastics.

mobilon line, wire??


Explanation:
モビロン - mobilon, seems to be some kind of plastic, with lots of applications
線 - normally means line, but it could be wire or a string.

Maybe your text refers to a thin string or something made of mobilon.
With more context we could probably help more.
