RF Industries RFU-6003 Mini-UHF Male Crimp RF Connector RG-174/U

The RF Industries RFU-6003 is a Mini-UHF Male connector engineered for field and bench termination of RG-174/U and Belden 8216 coaxial cables via a crimp assembly method. The nickel-plated body delivers reliable corrosion resistance in demanding installation environments, while the gold-plated center contact ensures low-resistance, high-integrity signal transfer at the mating interface. The PTFE dielectric insulator provides excellent electrical stability and low loss across the connector's operating range, making this a dependable choice for RF interconnect work in wireless infrastructure, test and measurement setups, and compact RF assemblies where the Mini-UHF form factor is specified.

Key features & benefits

• Mini-UHF Male Interface — Delivers a compact, threaded RF connection point compatible with Mini-UHF female ports, suitable for space-constrained panel and equipment installations.
• Crimp Termination — Crimp assembly method produces consistent, repeatable mechanical and electrical connections, reducing variability compared to solder-only techniques and supporting efficient production workflows.
• Nickel-Plated Body — Nickel plating on the connector body provides a durable, corrosion-resistant outer shell that stands up to repeated mating cycles and varied environmental conditions.
• Gold-Plated Center Contact — Gold plating on the signal contact minimizes contact resistance and maintains low-loss signal integrity over the life of the connection, even in humid or oxidizing environments.
• PTFE Dielectric Insulator — Polytetrafluoroethylene insulation offers superior electrical stability, low dielectric loss, and high temperature resistance, preserving signal quality within the connector body.
• RG-174/U and Belden 8216 Compatibility — Factory-specified cable compatibility with RG-174/U and Belden 8216 ensures proper dimensional fit during crimping and reliable long-term retention without cable pullout.
