A good wrap of electrical tape lasts pretty well and can be built up
pretty easy just in case you have tape but not the right size of shrink.

Roger try putting some thick walled heat shrink over the jaws like 3/4" and
shrink it down. Yes it needs to be replaced every so often but it sure
protects the connector shell.

I wasn't born in Saskatchewan, but I got here as soon as I could.

Use a thin sheet of Silicone rubber in a "U" shape inside the pliers to
protect the connectors. It works for me, but I'm often too impatient to
worry about a cheap PL-259 (Even Silver plated Amphenols are cheap)
BNCs are basically miniature N connectors, bur they lose a lot to scale
and are very weak. I've never seen them used outdoors. It tales little
strength to pull the coax out of one, making them an interconnect only
for me.
