"Hi, I'm looking for the thinnest possible coax wire and found that you used to have this listed at 1.2mm diameter. All the other RG-174 cable I've found online is 2.8mm diameter. Just curious where you found it and if you would ever stock it again. Or any other info that would help me search for this 1.2mm version." This week, we received a request for how to find ultra-thin RG-174 cable, such as the one we used to stock (https://www.adafruit.com/product/2059). Note that this isn't stranded or solid core wire; it's a 2-conductor coax, as thin as 16 AWG wire. We no longer carry this cabling, but DigiKey does! Let's take a look at how to find RF coax wiring at any length and width.
