Abstract: A vibration resistant connector is disclosed. The connector employs a friction member to create a resistance between a coupling nut of the connector and a connector body of the connector that is disposed in a cavity formed by the coupling nut. In some embodiments, the friction member is in the form of an O-ring that encircles a portion of the connector body and that is compressed by the coupling nut.
