PTFE 141 Semi-Rigid Cable Supply

The contract calls for the supply of low-loss PTFE 141 semi-rigid coaxial cable engineered for demanding high-frequency applications ranging from 0.05 to 18 GHz and capable of sustained operation at temperatures up to 200°C, with full functionality required in vacuum environments. The cable must maintain signal integrity and mechanical stability under extreme thermal and pressure conditions, ensuring reliability in sensitive scientific and aerospace systems. Deliverables are expected to meet strict performance and material specifications without exception, and compliance with international standards for high-frequency transmission and thermal resilience is mandatory. The solicitation is issued as a subcontract under NAICS code 335999 and is managed by the Berkeley National Laboratory, acting as a U.S. Department of Energy contractor. Responses are due by May 5, 2026, at 10:00 PM Eastern Time, with performance to be carried out at the Berkeley location. This procurement targets specialized manufacturers with proven experience in producing ultra-stable coaxial cables for high-end research and energy applications, and interested parties must demonstrate technical capability, quality control, and supply chain maturity to meet the rigorous operational demands of the end-use environment.
