F-Type Coax Connectors - Cable
ShowMeCables F-type coax connectors are available in sizes to fit LMR400-75, LMR600-75, RG11, RG11 quad, RG159, RG179, RG187, RG59, RG6, RG6 quad, and RG6 universal coax cable types, in male or female gender and chassis-mount, straight, or right-angle body styles. Many connectors include a crimp ring, nut and washer, or O-ring. These F-type coaxial connectors use compression, crimp, twist-on (screw-on), or solder attachment styles to secure the cable to the connector body. Twist-on connectors offer quick and easy terminations without specialized tools, while compression connectors provide a secure, weatherproof termination; compression-style and crimp-style connectors require a compatible compression or crimp tool for termination.

What is the 3/8-inch nut and washer set used for?
The 3/8-inch nut and washer set is used for securely mounting F-type female connectors in wall plates, patch panels, and other installations.
What does the tamper-proof security sleeve do?
The heavy-duty tamper-proof security sleeve has a zinc body that fits over an F-type connector and prevents tampering, helping protect coaxial connections in shared or public installations.
What is an F-type male terminator used for?
An F-type male terminator, also referred to as a dummy load, is an essential component in the proper termination of unused outputs of line splitters and amplifiers that utilize a type F interface. It features a brass body with precision-machined threads and is suitable for coaxial networks used in video, data, and telephony applications.
