An NMR probe head () having an RF coil arrangement () in a coil region () and an RF shielding tube () for supply lines leading from a connection region () to the coil region. An elongated backbone () is arranged inside the shielding tube and has an inherently rigid, mechanically stiff structure having continuous bores and/or connecting channels () which run parallel to the tube axis and accommodate the supply lines. The backbone has a continuously electrically conductive outer surface which leads from the connection region to the coil region and is electrically conductively connected to the conductive inner surface of the shielding tube via connecting elements (). A continuous electrically conductive contour is formed thereby between the backbone and the shielding tube. This shields against externally incident RF fields and spatially separates the stable mechanical supporting construction and the supply lines from the electronic and RF components.
