Hi, today I’ll be talking you through the setup of the F6M. Here is what it looks like fully terminated. The equipment needed to assemble this connector is the coax cable stripper, crimping tool, RG6 cable, a cable cutting tool and of course the connector itself.
The F6M is a crimp on F type connector, Matchmaster’s most used connector. Firstly, get your stripper tool, insert the cable and wind it around. Afterwards, pull back the braid and the foil sheath. Then, get your connector, twist on and push.
Grab your crimping tool, open the handles, insert prepared connector and crimp by squeezing the handles together. This professional crimping tool is suitable for RG6, RG11 and RG59 connectors. Lastly, use your cable-cutting tool to cut off the centre conductor to approximately 1 to 2 millimetres from the end of the connector and the job is done.
