Moonraker's super thin yet super performance RG174 cable takes signal integrity to the next level. Designed to mil-spec standards for the most demanding environments, its 50 ohm impedance and ultra-low-loss design ensure crystal-clear transmission.
Don't let its 2.8mm sleek diameter fool you - this cable is built like a tank, with robust double-shielding that protects against harsh conditions and interference. Moonraker's thinest RF coax cable provides the premium connectivity that radio operators demand.
At a mere 2.8mm diameter, this MIL-SPEC cable delivers incredible signal integrity and reliability in the most demanding environments. It's the skinny but mighty cable that proves big performance comes in small packages. For a coax that's out of this world, put your trust in Moonraker's super thin, super performance juggernaut.

Cable Comparison
Moonrakers Other RF Coax Cable Solutions:
RG-174 Military Spec - 2.8mm coax cable that has enhanced materials and undergone rigorous testing for extreme conditions.
Ideal for very short runs
Can be used for making Baluns
Portable operations, can be used to go through windows
RG-58 Military Spec / Standard - 5mm coaxial cable commonly used for general-purpose RF applications, while the military spec is designed to meet military standards.
Good for short runs
Can be used for mobile mounts
Mini 8 Military Spec - 7mm high-performance, rugged version of the standard Mini 8 cable, built to withstand harsh environments providing reliable, low-loss signal transmission for demanding applications.
Good for mid-size VHF runs
Lower loss than RG-58
Good choice for HF applications
RG-213 Military Spec - 9mm cable that has lower attenuation (signal loss) compared to RG-58, especially at higher frequencies. This makes it better for longer cable runs or high-frequency applications.
Can be used for larger runs
Good for HF/VHF to about 20m/30m
Stranded inside a conductor
F-Zero Military Spec - Our professional 10mm diameter low-loss cable that has been specifically formulated and designed to get as close to 'Zero Loss' as possible.
Solid inner - harder to bend
Low loss on UHF
Higher power handling
FZ-400CU - Our professional 10.30mm diameter flexible cable that has been specifically formulated and designed for industrial machinery, electrical installations, and automation systems.
Solid inner conductor
