Abstract

A coaxial cable fitting includes a metal bush receiving a cable end of a coaxial cable and adapted for making electric contact with the outer conductor of the coaxial cable, a contact clamp placed over the cable end of the coaxial cable and defining an annular end face about which a section of the outer conductor is bent outwardly and a screw element threadably engageable with the metal bush for urging the contact clamp against the metal bush to thereby press the outwardly bent section of the outer conductor against a radial shoulder of the metal bush wherein the contact clamp is securely received against rotation in the metal bush at least in its end position.
