12:1 Baluns/Ununs

Snap On Sleeve Chokes

Connector already on the cable? Don’t want to remove it? Use Snap On Ferrite split bead kits that clamp over the cable.

SNAP ON Sizes for Heliax and Coax Cable

Shown in the table are the SLIP ON and SNAP ON products for various popular Heliax and coax cables. These are the correct size for making common mode chokes for coaxial cable using either Snap On ferrite beads.

SNAP per Coax - 12:1 Baluns/Ununs


Refine by
12:1 Baluns are useful between 600-650 ohm balanced loads the impedance at the  end of the feed line is 600 ohms (1/2 wavelength feed line), or high impedance feeds for rhombic,  T2FD and traveling wave antennas.

12:1 Ununs are useful between coax and long wires with a load impedance near 600 ohms like a beverage antenna.  Shortwave listener antennas also can benefit with the 12:1 unun and it may provide a better match than 9:1 ununs – this means quieter noise levels and stronger signals so you can hear distance stations easier.
