Abstract

A coaxial cable connector includes an annular post defining an axial bore therein, a cylindrical connector body coupled to the post, a nut rotatably coupled to the post and a sleeve movably connected to the connector body. The sleeve includes at least one radially outwardly extending ridge formed on an outer surface thereof, which frictionally engages an inner surface of the connector body. As a result, the inner surface of the connector body does not require a recess or other engagement structure formed thereon.
