Quality & Compliance Resources

Suppliers of minerals used in the manufacture of Koaxis products (specifically gold, tin, tantalum, tungsten, mica, and cobalt) must demonstrate that they understand the conflict and extended minerals regulations and will not knowingly procure specified metals that originate from the Conflict Regions.

Koaxis endeavors to maintain the latest version of our Conflict & Extended Minerals Reporting using the most up-to-date version of the RMI templates.

We will only update these templates once per calendar year as soon as possible after Jan 1.

Koaxis' policy is to only buy components used in our end products from Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) or their Authorized Distributors only.

As these suppliers cannot be effectively audited, we trust that the OEMs and Authorized Distributors are working in their own best interests as it pertains to Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations (DFAR).

Child Labor, Slavery, and Human Trafficking

Koaxis is a Christian, family-owned organization and does not engage in, nor does it permit any activities within our organization or those of our suppliers that even hint at the use of child labor, slave labor, or any activities related to or that encourage human trafficking. Further, we will actively work to defeat any activities, even if passive, that facilitate or encourage the use of child labor, slave labor, or any activities related to or encouraging human trafficking.

We have not and will NOT complete the industry standard template, aka STRT.

Consultants are charging fees to collect these compliance documents and we will not encourage it.

We consider it a passive activity that profits from the aforementioned atrocities.

Koaxis' Standard products, not specified for "flight" applications, are not intentionally manufactured or formulated with substances above the thresholds listed in the REACH Candidate List of Substances of Very High Concern for Authorization. Therefore Koaxis products do not fit within the requirements for preregistration and registration under REACH.

Some Koaxis products, which may include products specified for "flight" and/or for which certain solders containing Lead are specified by the  design authority for an order, shall contain Lead. In these cases, the SVHC is required by our customer and so Koaxis shall not fulfill the compliance reporting required under REACH.

For more information visit "Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals"
at the European Chemical Agency web site.

View the current  Candidate List of "Substances of Very High Concern" (SVHC)

As of the date, below, Koaxis has evaluated the list of SVHC in effect on this date.
Koaxis shall update this statement no more often than once every 12 months, after Jan 1 each year.

All Koaxis products are designed and manufactured to meet the requirements of RoHs 2015/863/EU and 2011/65/EU. Products explicitly specified, by the Buyer or its affiliates, to contain components that do not meet the requirements of RoHS are specifically exempted. Brass is an important material used in the manufacture of machined components used in many coaxial connectors.

For products containing Brass and as a company, Koaxis claims Exemption 6c, "Copper alloy containing up to 4% Lead by weight".

Unless otherwise specified by the customer, as may be required for defense and aerospace applications, Koaxis uses SN96 solder as standard. SN96 typcially contains 96% Tin, 3.5% Silver, and 0.5% Copper.
