Description of π§ Jonard FT6 Flaring Insertion Length Tool
The flaring end of the tool facilitates the expansion of the cable providing easier insertion of "F" connectors. The insertion end makes "F" connector insertion fast and easy, even in cold weather. This tool is recommended for use on polyethylene jacketed cables and plenum cables, and is especially helpful when using tri-shield and quad-shield cables. 4-1/4-inch length.
The Flaring Tool is COMPLETELY UNUSEABLE Manufacturer Jonard has packed the damaged tool. The instrument was packaged and not opened. The end of the flaring tool is damaged. .Jonard apparently has ZERO quality control.
Sturdy little tool but it just WILL NOT work with the RG6 Quad (Southwire) coax I bought from Revain. The end of the flare tool will not fit the dielectric/foil and will damage both if twisted a little. The end of the insertion tool is great for inserting the prepared end into the F connector.
It could be a combination of wire and connectors but I found that in most cases it flared (even after reading the unplugging instructions had followed). spine shield) did not help. not enough to help. In cases where this worked well, you didn't even need to flare that combo or cord and plug. The part where you screw the connector on and get some leverage was a nice feature though.
