E-outstanding 3.5mm Mono Plug 5PCS 1/8 Inch TS Mono Mini Stereo Metal Male Jack Adaptor Connector

Worked for Me! I Needed 2-3 of these For External Speakers For Amature Radio & They are Easy To use & work Well ! they look & Feal Like Really Good Quality & Not like That not so Cheep Plastic Chinnesium Junk will !

Good quality

It does the job, but hard to insert in my radio. They should check their manufacturing tolerances. However, for the price, it is fine.

They worked just as intended. They solder well and they have a nice inner jacket so the wires never cross.

The connectors are exactly as represented and are sturdy metal devices that I plan to use for my radio projects; both speakers and small microphones. The first one is already in service. I found that converted stereo plugs could not be made to work reliably and that a 1/8 inch mono-plug works fine when connected to the back of the transceiver’s speaker jack. These work fine.

No surprises - straightforward to unscrew the body, insert your wire, apply solder, screw body back on, and get on with your life. They even have a nice strain relief for the wire. All-metal construction. What’s not to like?

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I thought this would be a decent component from its appearance and reviews. I was mistaken. As a former electrical engineer I am not inexperienced.My first attempt to use one resulted in it falling apart. The problem is that the shell did not want to screw on fully. So, I used my traditional technique of holding the barrel of the plug with needle nose pliers and screwing on the shell. When I examined the finished plug I was horrified to find that the barrel of the plug had collapsed due to its very thin wall. I tried to restore it to roundness (with nothing to lose) and it appeared like it might still work. So, I tried inserting it into a socket. Removing the plug, it came apart inside the socket. Take 2: I cut off the failed plug and started over. This time everything seemed to work out OK. But when I tested the cable for continuity, I had an open circuit on the tip. Removing the shell, I examined the soldered connections and again tested for continuity. What I found is that the tip had continuity to the end of the pin, but not to the solder tab. The reason for this is that the plug is designed as a pressure fit assembly and they must use minimal pressure based on the way the first plug fell apart. This means that the mechanical connection between the solder tab and the center pin pressed into the tip through the shaft of the plug was poor. The only solution was to create a small solder bridge between the end of the pin and the solder tab. Then the cable passed the continuity test. Bottom line: it may resemble a high quality phone plug, but it isn't. It won't take rough handling. Bending the solder tabs may break the mechanical connection in the assembly. Always check your work for continuity and a high resistance continuity check likely means a poor mechanical connection. Value for money:False economy. Spend more for better quality.

Make sure you want Mono plugs; if so, I recomment these.
