Product Description
3/8"-24 Right-Angle Stud to PL-259 Antenna Cable Mount Assembly
The HS818TN-PL is a premium 18-foot weather-resistant antenna cable mount assembly designed for two-way radio, amateur radio, and other 50-ohm mobile radio installations. It combines a right-angle 3/8"-24 threaded antenna stud, RG-58A/U coaxial cable, and a standard PL-259 (UHF-male) connector in one convenient assembly.
The low-profile right-angle stud design makes this cable especially useful for vehicle installations where space is limited and the coax needs to be routed through tight areas such as trunks, firewalls, door jambs, or body panels.
Key Features
- 18-Foot RG-58A/U Coaxial Cable – Provides ample length for routing from the antenna mount to the radio.
- 3/8"-24 Right-Angle Stud – Compatible with standard 3/8"-24 threaded CB and mobile antennas, springs, and quick-disconnect accessories.
- PL-259 / UHF-Male Connector – Connects directly to radios and equipment with a standard UHF female antenna connection.
- Weather-Resistant Construction – Designed for exterior vehicle and mobile installations.
- Dual O-Ring Sealing – Helps protect the mounting connection against moisture and the elements.
- Low-Profile Design – Right-angle construction helps simplify coax routing in confined spaces.
- 50-Ohm System – Suitable for CB, amateur radio, and other 50-ohm RF applications.
- Simple Mounting – Requires a 1/2" mounting hole for installation.
- NMO Compatibility – Can be adapted to a 3/4" NMO mounting hole using the optional NMO-38-KIT adapter kit.

Easy Antenna Installation
This assembly provides a convenient way to connect a 3/8"-24 mobile antenna to a radio without having to source the coax, mounting stud, and connectors separately. The right-angle configuration helps keep the cable installation neat while reducing the space required behind the mounting surface.
Note: The assembly requires a 1/2" mounting hole. For installations using a standard 3/4" NMO mounting hole, the optional NMO-38-KIT adapter/reducer kit can be used.
