Hi Joe: I'm not sure they even make the connectors you seek, because
in the CATV service, the coax enters the amplifiers, splitters, etc
directly and are anchored by set-screws. I assume what you have is
aluminum cable. You can make the fittings from "Sweat-Copper" or
brass water fittings. Of course, the bi-metallic problems must be
dealt with.
Good luck.  73, KL7HF
