Cobra 360

Compression Tool

Attaches all F-type compression

connectors used on RG-6, -59,

-7, -11 and mini coax cables.

It features a performance-driven

design that delivers easy, powerful

leverage and ensures consistent,

precise connections, every time.

To Terminate a Connector

1. Prep the cable according to the connector require-

ments to achieve the proper braid exposure and

center conductor length with the corresponding

Cable Prep Drop Cable Stripping Tool. Push the

connector onto the cable.

2. Two sets of connector support dogs are built into

the Cobra. The support jaws for RG 6/59 are gold,

while the support jaws for RG 7/11 are silver. When

both sets of dogs are aligned, your tool is adjusted

to the RG 6/59 setting.

3. To adjust your Cobra tool for RG 7/11 connectors,

simply hold the tool in one hand, grasp the gold

dogs with the other and pull them straight back,

away from the silver dogs, and then over to the

side. Reverse the action to reset for RG 6/59.

4. Once the tool is adjusted to the appropriate

setting for your cable, insert the connector into the

plunger tip and push the cable down through the

360 degree connector support dogs.
