I think that is teflon  and not silicon. Even better but much stiffer.

Silicone wires are used for making connections (mostly the battery conenctions). Usually the battery main discharge leads are silicone wires. (check your battery) ... They are preferred because of their high tolerance to heat and flexiblibility.
These wires come in various gauges  starting from 32AWG to 8AWG, available at HK.

I am yet to find a local source for them.   Bang Head

Teflon is surely much better, as they are resistant to fire, but quite stiffer. Also, the ID is usually small, hence not recommended for high current flow.

Here is the location :  Google Maps link

this is the link for a shop called chip components, keep walking towards the main road and you should have no problem in finding the shop ( on the left )......I think it is the fourth last shop from the corner.... hope this helps.....

Information sharing improves knowledge of both.
The Electronics Spair shop have the wire, silver coated copper with Teflon insulation and stranded one. I think this is the best. you have seen the single stranded wire and hence the stiff one. But damn costly, 1m wire Indian Rupees 60 or more.
