Default Running co-ax

Not a want as such just put my mind at ease.

I spent today running co-ax cable from the loft to run the telly free view.
This co-ax/freeview is emergency back up for if the Fire TV stick
/internet fails
So fire stick fall back to Freeview because I got ****ed of paying
Virgin[1] to watch ads.

I was fairly careful when I was running the co-ax down various 'holes'
not to touch pipework, I am worried though that the cable may move and
touch the pipework .
Will the co-ax cope with touching domestic hot water pipes or will this
heat load cause the cable insulation to degrade or off-gas?

[1] Have decided to ditch Virgin altogether (had phone,TV and internet
from them). And move to Vodaphone. They have installed gigafast cable
to here (Balerno outskirts of Edinburgh[one of only 15 cities to get
gigafast]) so getting internet from them, they 'throw' in a phone line .
TV as 'said' Firestick with freeview backup.
