Amphenol, a top name in RF connectors, has a guide that may help:

One useful trick, if you find dealing with the braid is a mess,
is to tin the braid before cutting.

Hey all,
	Thanks for all the previous HP advice. I finally
got the cables/caps/etc in the mail, today. I noticed,
however, that the BNC terminators come in three parts:

	+ The cap
	+ A metal cylinder of some sort
	+ The pin that functions as the male part of a BNC connector

The item(s) can be seen in this photograph, in the lower center.

There are no instructions on how to put this together. If
I drop in the pin through the center of the Cap, it doesn't
lock. If it tips, the pin will just fall back out. As far as
the metal cylinder? I have no idea what it's supposed to do. It
doesn't *fit* anywhere that I can tell.

These are 50 ohm terminators.
