Laird’s construction details matter in the field. The whip uses stainless steel for strength. The housing is ABS injection molded around a solid brass insert for a stable, long-lasting mechanical bond. Gold-plated push-pin contacts resist corrosion and preserve power transfer over time. A long tuning ferrule provides extra room for precise frequency adjustments without trimming, and a stainless-steel corona ball stays secured on the rod to avoid dissimilar metal interactions seen in lesser designs.

Choose the Laird AFT when you need a tough mobile antenna that installs cleanly, tunes easily, and keeps performing in demanding environments.
