hydraulic cables are pressure vessels. they are build to withstand oil under pressure. they typically have a rubber outer and inside there's quite a lot of metal to cope with all that pressure.
the two common grades are called T3 and Trapper. Trapper is the seriously heavy duty stuff - what you find in diggers and stuff. it's quite difficult to bend. is that enough shielding for you guys?
we could do a 'budget' version using T3. you might even be able to bend that round a corner. it would be barely centimetres thicker than regular audio cable.
incidentally, audio cable itself has shielding, it's just only designed to shield against EM, because you don't typically put speaker cables under pressure.
