Best place for HD twisted servo cable & screw type 90deg SMA elbows

[luvbus]

I would like to order a stockpile of HD twisted servo wire/cable but want to make sure it doesn't have the covering that melts 3" up the wire when you take a soldering iron within 5 feet of it. Anyone recommend a decent supplier?

Also I would like to buy some 90 deg SMA elbows, the ones that are screwed together not the push fit ones that I seem to have little issue parting.... Again looking for a recommended supplier of the 'good stuff'.

TIA,

Richie

The best bet for UK elbows is probably Allendale electronics

Simon,

If you have the elbows I will get them from you and add them to the antenna order. Let me know how much....

Cheers,

Richie

I have had a look on the Allendale site. Whilst they have plenty of elbows the pictures and description don't show if they are the ones held together by screws.
Got a bag full of the push together ones, don't particularly want any more from taking another gamble....

The crimp on ones you use on the antennas are the right type just need SMA both ends...

You can buy from Allendale directly from eBay with pictures provided Rich.

There is no such thing as a push fit SMA either, SMB connectors are push fit.

Hi Ian,

When saying 'push fit' I am talking about the way the two SMA connectors are joined at the right angle.
Some elbows have a slotted screw holding them together which seem far more robust than the second type where they are joined with an interference fit. Maybe I am a bit heavy handed or just unlucky but I have had two or three of the second type come apart. I would rather not chance them on my video feeds.

Cheers,

I would also be interested in some good quality servo wire.

Ah right, see what you mean now.

Found this in the UK on eBay. Seems to do the job without disintegrating at the first sight of a soldering iron.

Definitely at the HD end of the servo cable world.....
