RF Industries RFT-1217-X (5-Pack) TNC Female Crimp RF Connector Gold Contact

The RF Industries RFT-1217-X is a TNC female connector designed for crimp-on termination onto RG-8/X and LMR-240 series coaxial cables. Engineered for reliable field and bench assembly, it features a nickel-plated body, gold-plated center contact, and a Delrin dielectric insulator. This combination delivers strong corrosion resistance on the outer body, low-resistance signal transfer at the center contact, and a dimensionally stable insulator that maintains impedance integrity across a wide range of operating environments. Supplied in a convenient 5-pack, these connectors suit infrastructure deployments, antenna feed lines, and RF distribution systems where repeatable, professional-grade terminations are required.

Key features & benefits

• TNC Female Interface — The threaded TNC coupling mechanism provides a secure, vibration-resistant mating connection compared to push-on alternatives, making it well suited for installations subject to movement or mechanical stress.
• Crimp Assembly Method — Crimp termination delivers consistent, repeatable mechanical and electrical performance across every connector, reducing installer variability and ensuring a reliable gas-tight joint at the center contact and outer ferrule.
• Nickel-Plated Body — The nickel body plating provides a durable, corrosion-resistant outer shell that stands up to demanding installation environments while maintaining dimensional accuracy for consistent mating with standard TNC female interfaces.
• Gold-Plated Center Contact — Gold plating on the center contact minimizes contact resistance and resists oxidation over time, preserving signal integrity across the connector's service life without requiring re-termination.
• Delrin Dielectric Insulator — The Delrin (acetal resin) dielectric offers excellent dimensional stability, low moisture absorption, and consistent electrical properties that help maintain impedance integrity within the connector body.
• 5-Pack Quantity — Packaged in a 5-unit pack to support multi-run installations, maintenance stock, or production environments where more than a single termination is needed at once.
