Clay,
The relays we use are specially made for us; they have our part number on
them. You have to buy them in qty of 500+ at a time. But I do sell them
They are not $45 but $16.00 each. They are USA made and contain an RF
acceptable contact alloy which includes silver Oxide, and a gold flash.

I don't know the manufacturer. But, if your goal is to obtain some, you can
buy those relays from Array Solutions:
http://www.arraysolutions.com/Products/ratpak.htm#relay
Scroll to the bottom. You'll see he sells the relays individually for $45
each... same relays used in the RatPak, SixPak, etc.
If you really just want to know who makes them, perhaps if you call or email
Jay he will tell you.
73,
Tom, NI1N
