Jonard RF-12 F Connector Tool

The Jonard RF-12 is a dedicated hand tool for installing and servicing F-type coaxial connectors. It is built for technicians and installers who need a reliable instrument for cable termination work. The 12 in carbon steel construction provides the reach and leverage required for secure connections in residential and commercial cabling jobs.

Carbon steel build with 7/16 in contact

The tool is forged from carbon steel to withstand repeated torque cycles during connector fitting. Its 12 in length allows access to recessed or awkward termination points while delivering the mechanical advantage needed for proper compression. The 7/16 in contact size matches standard F connector dimensions, ensuring a precise fit that reduces the risk of damaged fittings during installation.

Low-effort operation for daily use

The carbon steel body transmits force efficiently, minimising the hand strength needed to seat connectors correctly. Smooth surfaces and a balanced weight of .3 lb reduce fatigue during extended cable runs or multi-drop installations. The simple mechanical design has no moving parts to maintain, keeping the tool ready for immediate use on site.
