"Dual" as in center in crimp and outer shield ferrule crimp? yes As opposed to what? Single-crimp? That would be connectors that use the center, solid conductor as the center pin yes(solder or captivated and then crimp the shield ferrule? Or...? yes Newly (did you guess?) into small coax connectors and trying to get the terminology straight... you did good are you just trying to learn the terminology or do you really need to make some connectors and seek the best/easiest? way to do that?? if you did you got a bunch of good tips here from the others Thanks. i'll throw in a few other simular options to connectors there are strip tools that can cleanly and safely strip the coax they just spin around and do a great job i've seen cost between 50 to 100bucks depending on coax also you can get a fixed center pin whereby you don't have to solder or crimp, the captivated connectors the outer sheild part gets a crimp only typically a bit of glue on the inside heavy ga heat shrink shrink goes over all they are rated very good soare are the center pins /outer shield that gets crimped using the right tool of course no matter what you use skills at doing the job and inspection/testing of the work will always remain a constant |
