ONE LOT OF 20 (TWENTY)
PL-259 Connector Features:
Solid BRASS body.
Heavy SILVER Plating
TEFLON dielectric
THE SILVER PLATING MAKES THESE CONNECTORS VERY EASY TO SOLDER AND THE TEFLON WILL WITHSTAND HIGH TEMPERATURES AND WON'T MELT LIKE LOWER COST NICKEL PLATING WITH PLASTIC DIELECTRIC.
The best body material is brass. Some lower cost connectors use tin, aluminum, or zinc.
The best plating material is silver which provides the lowest electrical resistance and VERY EASY to solder, even without flux.
The best dielectric material is Teflon which won't melt when soldering.
Nickel plated connectors can be quite difficult to solder, even with a good flux. Many PL-259 connectors of inferior quality have the center pin come completely out when heated during soldering. Some with a plastic dielectric will actually melt!
