Abstract
A hollow center conductor connector assembly having an expandable plug (12), a plug-expanding-conductor-coupler (14) and a bolt (15) provides a connector for smooth wall hollow center conductors and corrugated wall center conductors. The expandable plug (12) is provided with fine teeth (34) for gripping a smooth wall type center conductor and a helical groove (36) for gripping a corrugated wall type center conductor. The diameter of the expandable plug (12) is expanded when the plug-expanding-conductor-coupler (14) and expandable plug (12) are drawn together by a bolt (15).
