[TheList] Crimping Stranded RG58 to BNC

Sat May 14 21:40:53 AEST 2011

Have you tried soldering it?

Prepare and tin the inner /core make sure the pin still fits  then lightly
solder into the hole of the centre pin then with small pair of needle nose
pliers and keeping the pin hot fit the two together.

Bit tricky I guess at first but that what we all did before crimp
connectors.

It might be easier to buy some solid core RG58.

Hey guys,

I have the following tools...

BNC connector...

BNC crimping tool...
http://www.jaycar.co.nz/productView.asp?ID=TH1846

and some Stranded, RG58 cable.

Does anybody know of a good tutorial for crimping BNC's onto stranded RG58?
Cause I am lost! Especially with the difference between crimping a solid
core compared to a stranded core.
How do you stick the pin onto the stranded core?

Thanks heaps for the help,

Phil.
