I have a one off application where I want to get 1-2 additional 2.4 inch OD
cores
onto coax, but dont want to take the existing CMC assy all apart. The big
clamp
on is aprx 1.5 inches long..and is too long for this application. It’s a
tight squeeze inside the
nema box, and coax is already silver soldered at both ends to both
connectors. Dual silver
braids have been separated at each end of the RG-393 coax, and bonded to 7-16
Dins.
Can a type 31 2.4 inch OD core be cut clean in half....like in a bandsaw ?
I have a
vertical bandsaw with a metal cutting blade in... with 3 x speeds, 80-120-200
feet per
minute. The idea here was..IF a core can be cut in half, to place the 2 x
halves back around the
coax turns... and then either glue em back together..or perhaps use a ty-rap
around the circumference.
If cores cant be cut, I will have to disassemble the entire assy, and start
from scratch, which Id
rather not have to do, pita.
