Product details

Cable Group Compatibility — Which Coax It Fits

The 31-315: This plug is built for RG-174, RG-188, RG-188A, RG-316, LMR-100, and M17/119-RG174 cables. The crimp ferrule and centre contact dimensions are matched to these 0.100-inch-diameter class coax types. If you are terminating RG-58 or RG-59, this is the wrong kit — look at the 31-320-RFX instead, which is specced for the larger RG-58 group.

RF Performance and Mechanical Ratings

The bayonet lock gives positive retention with a quarter-turn, and the 500-cycle mating life means this plug survives field-service reconnections without contact wear issues.

For the crimp tool, use an Amphenol RF or compatible hex crimp die set sized for the RG-174/316 ferrule OD.

Frequently asked questions

What cable groups does the Amphenol RF 31-315 support?

The 31-315 is designed for RG-174, RG-188, RG-188A, RG-316, LMR-100, and M17/119-RG174 cables. It does not fit RG-58 or larger-diameter coax.

What is included in the 31-315 BNC connector kit?

The kit contains five pieces: one connector body, one crimp contact, one ferrule, one insulator, and one sleeve — enough for one complete cable termination.

What is a direct replacement or cross reference for the 31-315?

The 31-315-RFX is the closest functional equivalent, with the same electrical ratings but a POM acetal dielectric instead of PTFE. For 75 Ohm applications on RG-122/180 cable, use the 034-1026.
