i was under the impression from the hel website its there just for a colour option... as it still braided under..

CALLING EXBEN & STU or anyone else that can help

Yes there is stainless braid underneath unless they are kevlar lines.
You can remove it by running a rasor blade down the length "carefully" then stripping the outer off.

its there to stop rubbing and to tart them up the braiding is stainless steel with a teflon inner core
