This antenna stud is compatible with Firestik's custom FireRing cable attachment. It differs from traditional Firestik studs in that the bolt is 1.25" long instead of 1" in order to accommodate the FireRing attachment.

The importance of the stud mount cannot be overstated! The antenna stud mount acts as a bridge between the antenna and the coaxial feedline. Accordingly, it needs to allow for efficient transfer of your signals to and from the transceiver. If the stud mount doesn't perform that task efficiently, you end up with unneeded loss. On top of that, the stud mount must be strong enough to withstand the stress placed on it by an antenna that's subject to severe wind load and vibration.

Firestik stud mounts have become the industry standard as users increasingly appreciate their outstanding design and material quality. Instead of inexpensive aluminum, they use chrome-plated machined brass. Instead of 9/16" (14mm) hex stock, they use 5/8" (16mm) stock. Instead of ABS or inferior plastic insulators, they use nylon. Instead of cadium-plated hardware, they use stainless steel. And the heavy-duty 3/8" center shanks can mean the difference between trouble-free use and lost antennas.
