Toroid for use as HF/VHF balun, unun
A professional-grade core selected and tested by SOTABEAMS for 125 Watt 1:1 and 4:1 baluns; 3 - 50 MHz.
For higher power use, the cores can be stacked. These toroids are also great for combatting RFI problems.
Toroid cores are brittle so avoid banging them against hard surfaces.
Toroid core weight = 14 grams
OD = 29 mm ID = 19 mm
Equivalent to type 43 material
Typical Application
1:1 Baluns should be wound as shown in the diagram below.
Each pass through the hole in the toroid is a turn.
For 50MHz 3 + 2 turns of RG58 is recommended.
For HF 7 +6 turns of RG174 is recommended.
Hold the ends in place with cable ties.

Balun toroid
Nice example, easy to wind with instructions shown on the website. Not actually in use yet, but I’m sure it will work well as a 1:1 balun. Good deivery & service.

Balun Toroid
I like to make my own dipoles etc and having purchased these Toroid’s I find them very useful and can take up to 100w . Fast delivery. Recommended

Useful Torroid
I bought this to make my own 9:1 UnUn for my end-fed wire antenna. It was big enough to get the necessary number of turns which was helpful. Basically it just works! The UnUn tames the impedance so that I can tune 160 - 12 m. I would certainly buy it again.

Good price, good funktion.
I have used some of these rings instead for FT 118-43 and it seems to be similar values.

As expected
The toroid do the job. Not a fake toroid as many in today's market!
1:1 to 1:1.3 from 3.5 to 28 Mhz.
Happy with it and I would buy again if necessary. -
Balun core
Just the job.
Light weight and easy to wind.
Gave a 1:1 on 80m with no real measurable return current.
1.3:1 on 10m both at 100W
Happy with that.
Would recommend this core to others
