FT240-43 Ferrite Core (Material #43)

The FT240-43 is one of the most popular ferrite toroids for HF work. Made from material #43, it provides an excellent balance of broadband impedance and manageable losses across the 3.5–50 MHz range. A top choice for baluns, ununs, and common-mode chokes in amateur radio and EMC designs.

Specifications
  • Material: #43 ferrite mix
  • Outer diameter: 61 mm
  • Inner diameter: 35 mm
  • Thickness: 13 mm
  • Weight: ~120 g
  • Frequency range: 3.5 MHz – 50 MHz

Typical Applications

  • 1:1 and 4:1 baluns for HF antennas (dipoles, OCF, EFHW)
  • Common-mode chokes for HF coax feedlines
  • Ununs for vertical and longwire antennas
  • EMI suppression in HF bands

For LF or below 3 MHz, Mix 31 is usually better. For VHF, Mix 52 or 61 may perform more efficiently. Mix 43 is the “all-rounder” for HF amateur radio.
