Thank you for your question! Absolutely. Our cable has a rated operating temperature down to -40 degrees Fahrenheit so no issue with using it in a cold storage unit.
i followed this and my center copper pin barely makes it into the center pin on the 259... its in but just barely... had the first cut gone an extra 1/8 inch it would have been deeper up into the center pin... now i am going to solder the pin and hopefully it flows down ... sorry im just new so i watch all your videos

Nice tools I'm sure, but way to expensive for the average Ham to buy and use. I could see if I was a professional, putting tens of these connectors on a day, but for something that would get used two maybe three times a year, no way!
