Semi-Rigid, Conformable® & Flexible Family Semi-Rigid, Conformable & Flexible Family of cables use common connectors originally designed for semi-rigid type cable. The semi-rigid cables are available with a copper or aluminum jacket and available with a selection of different platings and in 4 different diameters (.047", .085", .141" & .250"). The Conformable®, or hand formable, (BJ - Braided Jacket), has a tin filled braid with a metal foil underlay for shielding and mechanical integrity. The flexible version, our Mini-Flex, has an FEP jacket, round braid and inner spiral shields and is available...
