Coaxial cables with low losses and wide temperature range performance typically rely on PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) as an insulation material. At elspec, PTFE has been the most frequently used core material—alongside copper, silver, and steel—for over 32 years. With industry demands for precise and stable measurements becoming increasingly rigorous, PTFE...

Field Testing at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) Between October 2015 and October 2016, two types of coaxial cables were tested under real radiation conditions at the HZDR. An 8-meter Teledyne Storm Microwave Phase Master® 160 and a 10-meter Harbour Industries LL142 were installed behind a beam dump at the ELBE...
